[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djteotancolis:
Hey guys i was wondering if someone could help me for getting a rom that works right outta the box with global mode. I tried liquid smooth and Slim Beans, but i cant switch to GSM mode or Add apn's...i am using Synergy right now, but i dont even get a whole day on one charge.. so i was wondering if anyone know of any Rom that can automatically find the APN, or at least we can add them. and also allows to use GSM Mode

Thanks :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfetaz:
I am in cairo egypt right now. When I got here I was running pacman rom. I did not get a signal. I was able to eventually get a signal by going into the phone hidden menu thru the app pimp my rom (same menu the app phone info used to go to) and switch my radio to gsm auto (prl). But this seemed a little spotty at times. While here I wanted to try MOAR rom, which is touchwiz based. I figured if I cannot activate that I can just restore my nandroid backup in twrp and be fine. However after installing MOAR and waiting about 90 seconds, my Verizon S3 activated fine. So in my recent experience I guess the easiest wayI can say to get Global mode working is any rom based off stock, or stock rom itself.

Edit - Forgot to mention that I did not change the sim card and I am connected to Vodafone. However this means any calls texts or data I use while here incur very expensive charges with verizon, so I am using wifi and my Google voice number with talkatone to not have to worry about this.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] djteotancolis:
Awesome, will Give Moar a try. Did you install APN manager pro btw or did it let you add an APN.?

Thanks for the answer btw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfetaz:
I did not use any apn software to get it to work on either rom. Also I do not believe it needs to be MOAR rom, any touchwiz based verizon rom should work, including synergy, beans or cleanrom. With the 4.1 jellybean update for verizon S3 i think the global mode was added by default, as it is a choice under settings->wireless and networks-> more settings, mobile networks, network mode
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CitrixLemon:
So I'm wondering if anyone has noticed this on their device, or if I'm just going crazy. The metallic frame/band that runs along the outside of the phone appears to be raised slightly higher in relation to the glass on the right side of the phone (facing you) than on the left. If I run my finger over the screen and the edge there is a noticeable difference between the screen and the frame on the right side of the screen but not on the left, top, or bottom. I don't know if this is just some sort of imperfection, like the glass is recessed on that side or if it's just how the phone is. Anyone see something similar on their device?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nitrogen618:
I notcied it on mine too.. Just slightly though.. Not enough to notice until I pick it out. Thought I was the only one with eyesight going bad.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mike105217:
You are not the first person iv heard of with a problem like this so i would have it checked out by the people you got it from and get an exchange if possible..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BackhandShelf:
I have noticed this too. I have a Verizon S4 and have been looking for anyone else with this problem. I don't know about you but it is driving me nuts having the unevenness feeling when I hold the phone. Please update if you try to get a replacement.
[HTC Desire C] odunluzikkim:
Once upon a time I had a HTC Wildfire S. I was installed CM7 and I founded "long press back to kill app" option in developer settings. When I quit a program, I was hold back button.

Now, I have a HTC Desire C. I am using russell's revolution mod v3.4. I like this rom. I found developer settings but I can't found "long press back to kill app" option. How to I add this option in developer settings? I searched in google and xda-dev but I could not find it.
[HTC Desire C] Evolitist:
This option is only present in Cyanogenmod. If you don't mind broken WiFi, you can install CM and use this function.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravenofdoom:
I flashed TWRP to make backups and am finding I want to revert to stock recovery for whenever the next OTA is pushed. I'm on stock 4.2.2. Is there a repository to flash the stock recovery specific to the version of android I'm on or other way to backup/re-flash stock android prior to installing custom recovery?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
The stock Android recovery cannot make entire system (NANDROID) backups like TWRP or CWMR can. If your looking to re-install stock Android 4.2.2 for the Nexus 10 you can download and flash the Nexus 10 factory image from here (I would recommend taking a look at this great guide if your are unfamiliar with how to flash factory images). If you just want to reflash the Nexus 10 stock recovery you can download it from here, boot into fastboot mode and then flash it with the following command:

fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery-stock-manta.img

After it completes you can reboot into recovery mode and you should now have the stock Nexus 10 recovery image installed. For flashing the stock recovery you should try and match it to the Android version so if your on Android 4.2.2 try and flash the recovery.img that was pulled from the Android 4.2.2 factory image. However usually you can get away with flashing 4.2 or 4.2.1 version of the stock recovery.img as it is unlikely that anything major changed with the stock recovery image in those small incremental Android updates.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravenofdoom:
Is there a repo or other way to make a backup of stock recovery before flashing custom (TWRP/CWMR). If I'm on the go and want to interchange between custom recovery and previous stock recovery without the aid of a computer nearby, how would I do that? Is there an app that can save/snapshot my current stock recovery before flashing custom recovery (and then can later let me re-flash that saved recovery)?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Flashing stock recovery wont make me lose any data will it? because 4.3 was released for s4 google edition so im sure nexus 10 is close and i want to be ready.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Correct flashing stock recovery won't make you loose any data. But as always when your flashing anything and if you have even the slightest hesitation backup any data you wouldn't want to loose.

OK what is the command to use to flash because the one from the previous page didn't work it said something about not finding it or something:confused: are there any drivers that need to be installed or something I'm missing? I connected it to my CPU and turned it on while holding power and volume and it went menu where you see tablet info? Any help please

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruce7373:
Don't know if you still need this info, but you can use flash_image to flash recoveries without having to connect to a PC. So if you save the recovery image files, you can switch easily. Have a look here:

http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/how-to-flash-a-new-recovery-image-if-you-are-already-rooted/

I haven't done this on my N10, but I've used the method several times on my HTC Vivid phone.

[MENTION=4618107]bruce7373[/MENTION] it didnt work it just tells me flash_image not found when i put in the command and i checked and its there on the sd card
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruce7373:
The IMG file is not found or flash_image itself isn't there? If you don't have flash_image, you can download it (I think there's a link on that page I referenced, or just Google it). If the former, you need to first navigate to the folder flash_image is in (/system/bin with the ROM I have on my N10), then run the command, making sure the IMG file is in the root of /sdcard.

I want to wipe battery stats in clockwork mod on lg p500 on cm10 4.1.2 unofficial can I do it safely even though I flashed the ROM back in march? does doing this delete any data? I want to wipe battery stats for better battery life. thank you
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayc137:
That wipe battery stats is a placebo in the recovery :p

If you want to calibrate your battery search battery calibration app on play store

Either ways none of your data will be lost or deleted
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unlimitedsol77:
Absolutely correct! Search the Play Store...top calibration app is great! Follow instructions exactly and read the review...there are some great tips! I had no issues whatsoever! Replaced a bad battery and used this to calibrate the new one...WORKS GREAT!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
First off I would like to give a big thanks to James for allowing me to be a beta tester for his batteries, and accessories. Received this stock replacement with Nfc, about 5-6 days ago and have been using it since,.. great battery! And if your looking for something to replace your factory battery or just a spare, you can't beat it,..especially for what they sell for! I consider myself a pretty heavy phone user, of course don't go crazy and put the brightness all the way up or anything, but texting, phone calls, YouTube, Netflix, web browsing, I do a very good bit of it. I'll get right down to it and post my battery screen shots with the Onite,.. More reviews coming soon including an Onite extended with Nfc. Thanks again James,..this is a great battery guys! Btw phone is unrooted, completely stock
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] eight1127:
the same experience

I have also got a Onite battery.It is indeed as you described.very good quality! I am so lucky to get what I need.much appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jax5ter:
got one to test as well

i would totally agree with the OP on this. i recieved one too for my s4 and must say if not more i am getting the same amount of time from this battery that i would get from the stock battery. would recommend anyone in the market who carries spare batteries like me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] GuestK00345:
Awesome. Have 2 coming in tomorrow. We're talking 2600s, right?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
Yep!, the 2600, awesome battery,. Can't be beat , especially for the price!

So I just got my NFC version batteries today. Upon close inspection is looks like the battery has the NFC charging coils built in. Has anyone tried putting this battery in and laying it on a charging back?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
? , What do you mean laying it on a charging back? Nfc works fine in mine
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 97prelude:
I may be confusing wireless charging with NFC.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] cresmonni:
NFC? Really?

Oh,I use NFC with S3 usually.

But I don't think it is related with the wireless charging.

Maybe you need a Wireless Charger Receiver Pad if you lay it on a charging back.

Hope is helps. Please Clike me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chales:
NFC is not wireless charger pad

The upstair is right.

You can get the wireless charger pad on ebay or amazon.

NFC is not wireless charger pad.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CHUUZE:
OP, do you need a separate charger for the nfc onite battery or can I charge it while its in my phone? I've had past experiences with aftermarket batteries only being able to be charged with that company's charger and was disappointed when that battery was drained.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jax5ter:
the battery i received from them charges just fine with the Samsung charger that came with the phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CHUUZE:
sweet, buying through amazon now...:good::good::good:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
Yep charges exactly like the stock battery ..they are making there separate charger (the one that you can just charge the battery itself) better for faster charging,..the older ones take longer to charge,.. comes in handy when you have another way to charge your extra battery
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chales:
Want a quick charger

How long does it take to full charge?

I wish a quick charger no more than 5 hours.

2600mAh/5h=520mA at least.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
The one they are making now,..should be just about finished, it's 600ma so it will be significantly better than the other one, I'll make a post as soon as I have one in hand. I should be receiving one soon, not sure what the older charger takes for a full charge I think it's 6.5 hours or longer,..which is why they've been working hard to get this new 600ma charger out.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Brickley:
600mA?That's great!

4hours will be great.

Have you got it?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] louiscyphere13:
They'll notify me as soon as there available,.which I think should be pretty soon, when we talked he said they were pretty much finished with them,..I really want one, it'll be nice having another charger, and one that works fast
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Brickley:
That's great

when is it supposed to be available?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] CHUUZE:
STOKED!!!

Excited to get my 2x Onite batteries w/NFC today...Tracking them through Amazon and my local post office has it out for delivery!!!Also for the charger is it just a plug in battery charger or is it a dock/battery charger. I saw the dual dock/battery chargers on amazon but no reviews...

Download the zip in the first post.

flash via TWRP or CWM

clear cache and dalvik

Photosphere works for me, I didn't try video or anything. It comes with the Gallery as well so you can view the photosphere pics.

it won't replace you'r Sense camera or Gallery, so you'll have 2 of each.

For me, with photosphere, I get "sorry your device is not yet supported."

Like Google Play store and all the other perks of Android? With all the jailbreaking/PS3 hacks now a days and the ability to run OtherOS(Linux) on any custom firmware is it possible? What a way to breath fresh new life into the PS3 lol. I know the PS3 runs some crazy hardware so it's probably not possible. I apologize if the threads been made and I was just curious.

i dont think its possible anymore. After that big hacking scandal on psn, sony created an update that stops people from installing other os's on it.
[General Questions and Answers] KayKrate:
Yeah it does work "in" a ps3 through virtual box , but since Sony removed OtherOS from settings you can't install it anymore , but I think you can restore OtherOS if you have 3.55 firmware
[General Questions and Answers] andyjeezy:
Now the PS3's can run CFW custom firmware where you can use the OtherOS. They(PS3 hacking community) also have a hack where you can downgrade your firmware to run OtherOS as well. My question is that if you can run Linux is it possible to run an Android build off of that? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks for reply.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] anthonyeeles:
I've purchased a second hand xda2, and found (not entirely to my suprise) that the battery life wasn't great - typically less than a day even if it had sit in the charging cradle the previous night.

So i went to o2 shop yesterday lunch time and purchased a new battery. They charged it for me on a rapid charger - took 30 minutes. However by the time I got home at 8.30pm the XDA2 was reporting very low battery - this is the new one - So I put that down to the rapid charger and I fully charged that one over night last night and took it out of the cradle at about 8 this morning.

It's already reporting 57% percent battery.

Now ok, i'm aware I've been using BT a lot to sort my active sync this morning etc, but surely battery life should be better than this? I used to have an IPAQ and that needed recalibrating because it was incorrect at guessing how quickly the battery would drain. Does this happen with the XDAs? if so how can I recalibrate or is something else likely to be draining the batt?

Thanks

Anthony
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
well the manual say you have to charge it for 24hours or so the first time

i would try to do that

also look if it's the normal batt or backup batt which is complaining

otherwise the batt life should inc the more times you charge it
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] anthonyeeles:
Ok i'll try leaving it in the cradle over the weekend and switch back to my normal phone - backup battery is 100%. My old battery is in the aux battery holder in the cradle and has been since 1.30 this morning so maybe tommorow i'll give that one a whirl again!

Thanks
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] adesalis:
Try it with bluetooth switched off for a day and see if you get a different result. The other possibility is if you're in a low coverage area and your phone is constantly polling for network availability - is this likely to be the case?

If none of these apply, are you running any other peripherals, e.g. SD Wireless card? Just trying to whittle down the possibilities before blaming the hardware.

rgds,

Alex.
