right everyone, i could really do with some help/advice

months ago i rooted my phone unlocked bootloader all that jizz jazz. but then phone messed up so had to get stock GB rom which put it back to how i bought it.

a few months passed and now im bored of having no games or anything on my phone. and also want to get rid of the junk that came on it.

so now really i just need advice which rom/kernals to get that will run well without lagging, ive totally forgotten how to root my phone again so links would be helpful.

whether its ICS jellybean or anything else thats out right now, just want to be able to play on some emulators ect.

Hello fellow XDA! [MENTION=4966491]CurtyB2212[/MENTION]

Here I leave this recommendation to guarantee you a 100% stable Rom and fast to play and everything else ...

1) Download Flashtool (Firmware installed Clean Tool): http://androxyde.github.io/index.html?1369115799000

2) Flash Firmware 0.58 (Enhanced) (Via Flashtool): http://www.mediafire.com/?8qq6d21b9lq6vby

3) Install Lupus GB v6: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?a80ukagew0g406b

4) Download AuroraPlay v0.9.0 (I recommend this version because it is the most stable and fast): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2124442

5) Install AuroraPlay v0.9.0 via CWM.

6) After the first boot, enter CWM mode denuevo & Install Script (Project Lard v6) I recommend this version because it is the most stable: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2265510 (From this post, also download and install the Script, UltrasensitiveTouchscreen & Gaming Ram Management)

That's the perfect combination for performance & Autonomy at 100% ..

PS: If you do not know how to do internet searches or tutorials on XDA that are well detailed and explain how you perform the above steps in detail.

Ah! and be sure to have your bootloader unlocked .. ;)

I recently ran into the following Google Play Music error "Couldn't Play the Track You Requested" after installing a new ROM. After a bit of messing around I was able to solve this problem rather easily with the following steps.

1) Settings>Apps>All>Media Storage>Clear Data.

2) Download a rescan app. ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uberullu.rescansd&hl=en )

3)ReScan.

I upgraded to the Siemens 2003 OS and it really messed up my Phone signal. Downgraded to the XDA OS and it works a little better only because the "Trick" to getting it to work on 1900 is to reboot the device several times, a real PAIN.

There seems to be a flood of question but not many answers For awhile today I couldn't get logged in; which left me outside the system with no way to inquire as to what was wrong. I just went back to review the error message and it let me in; so maybe is was a server issue.

Having major issues with my 3 month old XDA.

1. Will charge when using the home charger

2. Will charge when using cradel connected to 1 of my 2 PC's

3. Will not charge when using cradel connecting to my other PC

4. Will not charge when using cradel connecting to my MAC

5. Will charge when using cradel connecting to my PC Laptop

6. Will not charge when using the O2 supplied car charger

In every case the phone thinks it is charging i.e. the green charging light comes on and if you go to the battery control panel, it even says "charging".

XDA repair centre have had it for 2 weeks, flashed the rom and returned it. Still doing it.

Have demanded a new phone form onestopphoneshop.com who have refused due to it being more than 28days old although it has done this from new.

Aaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!!!

Can anyone help?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] edsub:
Have you tried another battery?

Since the hardware 'logic' seems to be doing something (light goes on, software gets charging signals) the chances are the battery is faulty . . .

Why some chargers do work and others dont: Could be the charging current that is higher on chargers (incl USB port of one of your pc's) that make this battery charge.

Battery...could be I suppose, but I have been digging further into this and have found the following.....suspicious!

www.ppcw.net/?itemid=1646
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] siezear:
Hello,

I have a very similar problem to that described in the website you listed.

My phone works fine with its supplied cradle and charger, and charges fine with my work and home PC's, with only the USB cable plugged in.

I bought a charger/ sync cable off the web hoping to not have to carry my cradle home each day and it causes huge problems.

First off it doesn't sync at all - but does cause problems with activesync giving me error messages once it is unplugged saying 'Can't access COM1'

Worst of all though it turns the LED to orange for charging, and when you go to the battery screen it says charging, but instead it actually discharges the battery! This is also the case when I use the cable with the wall socket plugged in.

I have found that the battery will charge if the xda 2 is about 70% full but lower than this and it will discharge the battery via usb.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] GoldenSands:
Just want to make sure, is it 1400 mAh? because the standard one in the imate (xda2) is 1200 mAh.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] conaero:
It is indeed a 1460 battery to be precise, I have been told that they are very rare, think they are the ones that are going in the new XDA II i, s, III or what ever it is going to be called.

It should last 25% longer, cost £25GBP. Will let you know how I get on with it on Monday after a weekend of testing.

Back to the charging problem, do you others who have the same charging problem all use the O2 supplied USB cradel. Is there anyone else using an alternative charge and sync cable that works better???

Just a thought.

I have been told more by the XDA repair centre. It seems that the output through various USB ports vary in ampage, surely some sort of regulation should be made into the cradels/chargers???
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
not sure if this is relevant but

if one does not connect the power connecter to the cradle

then the xda will be forced to charge using usb

and some motherboard have issues giving enough stable power

more so if you have connected more then one usb device

to ports which share the max 500mA that usb can give

also not all motherboard can charge over usb when

the pc is off it all comes down to if usb is powered with vsb+ 5v

some motherboards have jumpers to control this
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] siezear:
canaero - Where did you buy the battery from? Is it exactly the same size, or is it slightly thicker?

I have ordered a mini-sync charge cable from boxware in the states; on their website, it says it is compatible with my ORange SPV M1000, but we'll see when it gets here.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] GoldenSands:
Well, I am using the cradle and I do not connect it to the power supply, here it goes, it takes a lot of time to charge my imate (xda2) if it is connected to my notebook, while it takes about less than an hour to charge the imate if the cradle is connected to my PC!!

That's really good price and I guess the battery performance should be better, I heared the xda3, or xdaIIi or whatever (the new model), the battery power is 1490mAh. Please let us know your experience with the new battery.

Re: IT WONT CHARGE!!!

Yikkkes, O2 must listen to you as you have bought so many, say you will send them all back and cancel the contract and see them squirm. Let me know what the outcome is, because leagaly you can send them back and get our of your contract under 'not fit for purpose'. Do it around the time of the new XDA, who knows!!!!

There really is an answer to this somewhere, I have bought this new high capacity battery and it is still not charging when it says it is. I am off to the Microsoft site to see if I can get them to point the finger and the XDA.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LooieENG:
Just wondering. When the screen is off, why is it as black as the bezel around it, same on my One S, but on my Galaxy tablet and some other phones, it's grey and you can clearly see where the screen is?

I thought maybe the glass is darker, but wouldn't this screw up the contrast/colours of the screen? Or maybe the material doesn't reflect light as much, but what material is this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblue95z:
It's the screen. Amoled's backlight is from the pixel itself and doesn't need any source for backlight. It's those backlights on non Amoled screens that make black look grey.

Edit...

Misread what you asked. Thought you meant when the screen is on displaying black.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
You're pretty much right. Its the sheet of plastic that they use in the screen. It all depends on what type they use. It varies from screen to screen. Samsung uses AMOLED screens so they use a different type of backlight. Samsung tablets use PLS though, which is like their version of IPS. They use a lighter backlight so it looks different. I personally don't like PLS screens or bad IPS screens (like this phone). The off viewing angles are pathetic. Good IPS screens like on the Lenovo Yoga or the HTC One are great, but otherwise I prefer normal LCD. Just my opinion

Compared to the htc one, its horrible. I'm not trying to start a fight here, i know this phone is $300 cheaper than the htc one, but still, I prefer wide veiwng angles.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingenious247:
Actually my only gripe about the Nexus 4 aesthetically is that it's NOT as black as the bezel when it's off.. Sometimes it's grayish, sometimes it's actually darker (depends on the lighting). the Gnex was uniformly black when it was off (which is the one thing I loved about the design), while outdoors I can easily see the "gray" of the N4's bezel (screen if you're indoors) when the screen is off. Wish it was all black, looks much better that way.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ianas:
The LCD itself is an important part of why it looks like it does, but the more important factor is that the LCD is optically bonded to the touch surface, leaving no space for light reflections, air, etc. between the touch surface and the LCD itself. In LCDs that are not so bonded you see light reflecting off the touch surface, but also light that passes through the touch surface and reflects back off the LCD surface. In an optically bonded display assembly much less light reflects off the LCD surface because they put glue or a similar substance between the touch surface and LCD so there's no air between them.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
From memory it is the polarizing filter/layer(s) that dictate how dark the panel is when it is off.

AMOLED doesn't use any backlight. IPS/PLS/TN/PVA/etc. all use either CCFL or LED for backlighting, the brightness/dimness of the light source effect brightness when the display is on but not when it is off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
I know...I said PLS screens use a backlight, thats why they look different.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
You said AMOLED uses a different kind of backlight, AMOLED uses no backlight so no you didn't know; and no the type of backlight isn't why they look different when the screen is off.
