Thanks for the post.

Is there any chance of a port for the Xperia Z calendar?

Thanks again.

It's very similar to the ICS version. Practically the same. So, no.

Xperia Z just got its Album app updated to newer ver than the one leak from I1/ Z Ultra and also work on ICS. It's also pretty smooth and got new picture transition animation (a little different to I1/ Z Ultra ver). http://www.mediafire.com/?bn3o7c55cvpt87k

Walkman also got updated but doesn't work on ICS. http://www.mediafire.com/?vamgmovvm2m7b5w maybe someone can port it

Is it worth flashing a new ROM at the moment? I mean, the ROMs I've seen are incomplete and I read about a lot of problems? If its worth it, what is the best ROM out now and why?

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICuaI:
I don't really know about problems with arman68's infiniROM. It is smooth, fast and battery-life is much better than stock.

Not really "goodies" which can cause issues.

I use the AIO Mod v6, system-apps and debloater and i am satisfied

But, if it is worth is your decision

Ahhhh I kept hearing a lot about an Omar ROM? I don't know but I haven't heard of yours, is there a post? Link me maybe?

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sky0165:
I think Omar ROM is the best in the moment. Each 3 ~ 5 days there's a new build. That's good because you know that the no one quited the project of something like that, different from Pi-Llama that you never know the next update.

It has great battery life (2 days without charge it), smooth like hell and i'm without bugs at this moment. I'm using jully 4 build.

The best you've to do is make a clean install. Wype everything and format all your device, to then install it. Works like a charm. If you install build over build, you'll get lags soon or later.

I hope i helped you.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philrazr:
Same here, works without a flaw - butter-smooth and seriously great battery-life (~6h30m screen uptime, playing around with the phone like a little kid... still 28%).

To be honest, I didn't try Omar's - but arman68's infiniROM is just perfect.

I really thought about trying omars ROM but there are to much issues postet for me. I don't want to make a full wipe twice a week. I want to use my phone :p

But its a great work what omar is doing. omars kernel is integrated in armans ROM...
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chri$b0b2005:
I think I'm really considering Omar's ROM it seems less hassle than infinirom even though the constant updates, but I think that if I just backup my apps in a zip or whatever I'll should be fine :3

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sky0165:
You don't need to make a fill wipe with each build. You can install it over the old. As I said, there will be an hour that you have to make a full wipe and a clean install, if not, you'll get lags.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clickstop:
I have personally tried both Omar's rom and Arman's infinirom, I don't really notice much of a difference between the two. Omar's rom has more goodies, but imo Arman's is better as a daily driver just because updates don't come out as often. They're both worth trying out. Regarding battery life, I haven't seen the remarkable battery life that everyone has with infinirom. At best, I usually end up with 3.5 hours screen time after two days of use. Omar's gives about the same battery life. Then again, cell signal in my area is average at best.

Oh and one last thing, is you want to use some mods in the forum like shaftenberg's music controls, use Omar's as it's deodexed. Hope you like whichever one you go with, they're both better than stock!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonelsr:
Omar-Avelar's ROM totally worth it. It seems to be the most actively developed and people are liking it.

I came from Moto Defy and Defy+, I was used to CM10 (the best d* ROM ever) and Omar-Avelar is the closest for XT890 I've used so far.

=D

Have a nice day
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaftenberg:
I think that's the point.

With every respect to any developer here, but we are still on stock ROMs. Omar did some great changes to the kernel, but most of the work are mods, deleted system apps and so on. Tweaks here and there, but not every tweak is for anyone.

Take automatic brightness for example: arman68 tweaked this so much, you can get outstanding battery life with it - if you use it.

Personally I prefer *my* settings, which are 40% brightness indoors, 100% outdoors, that's it. AMOLED lives with its colors, why darken it to get some hours more in standby?

Every user will tell you other opinions, some need extra fps for gaming, some want to swap SD card, some other need very dark screens for reading at night. It depends what you want.

Summary for me: I stay on stock, deodexed it, disabled some Motorola stuff I don't need manually, disable Google Now(!), put some mods in it for my likings and a happy face and I'm fine with it. In general I got same battery life, because the largest battery hog is the display.

You might want to test Omar's kernel for stock ROM, think, that's the greatest deal - but have in mind that you might not see or "feel" the difference.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floxos:
I second that! Omar's is the best so far, but make sure you do regular nandroid backups.

[Nexus 4 General] pGuerrerox:
The first Nexus 4 that I purchased was using a vpn and my debit card issued in my country (Dominican Republic), I used to enter the google play web from my pc using the same vpn but one day i forget to turn the vpn on and for my surprise, when I went to the google play page I had full access to all the content like apps, movies, tv shows, music, magazines, and devices. Ever since I had been able to purchased a few more nexus 4 to friends.

At the same time my Play store (in the phone) got full access too. I don't know why nor how this happens but I totally like this. I have asked many friends to enter their play store to see if they had access to movies, books and such but they only had access to Apps and Games.

I FEEL LUCKY!

As for Google's Music service, I know it can be bypassed to work any place but lately I have been reading that some people couldnt use the new All Access service because they were in unsupported countries. I tried to subscribe today for the free trial and boom it works perfectly.

this is me been lucky or there is an explanation to this?

thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] tom1807:
Did you shipped the N4 to an American address like I did?

After I purchased the 2nd N4 for my colleague, Google assumed that I am either an American citizen or live in the States.

Since then I have also full access to the play store incl working wallet.

Funny part: I tried last time to download a localized application for Taiwan, Play store told me that this program is not available in my device country.

And this is only for 1 Google account.

Logged in with a second one, application was available.

I can't install Cyanogenmod Nightlies on my phone without patching the META-INF installer script. I've been changing the

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wobblyrainking:
my phones history

I rooted with motochopper.

When Dan Rosenberg came out with Loki I installed twrp.

Tried to Loki and flash jfltecan build from 528. Couldn't.

Installed clockworkmod via Loki. Flashed jfltecan from 528

When cm released the jflteatt builds I found I couldn't flash them for the same reason above.

Found that removing the assert from the install script made it so I could

Then I did setproc to jflteatt and it still failed. Then I installed another jfltecan nightly.

Then I odined back to stock checked my getproc info. It said jflteatt again. So I redid motochopper installed clockwork mod and tried to flash jflteatt nightly again. Same problem.

This is what Dan did when he made Loki, I have yet to hear back from him. I'm currently running the jflteatt cm 10.1 from June 6th

Thanks.

Apparently flashing the canadian version screwed your phone for some reason.

Try to go to download mode, and report back the information that it shows.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wobblyrainking:
Info plus my two cents

In download mode it says

Product Name: SGH-I337

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

CS8-OEM_Config_lsb: 0x30

Write Protection: Enable

Okay... so I understand that I flashed Canadian ROM. The only difference between ATT's phone and Rogers is the locked bootloader. It's the same ROM. Dan Rosenberg did the same...I haven't heard back from him as to whether or not he's got this issue.

Even so... I believe the steps above show that if I flash the canadian rom and the ODIN back to stock it changes the product name and build name back to jflteatt. That being true whatever I did by flashing the Canadian ROM is invalidated by ODINing back to stock, theorhetically.

What I really need is someone with a phone that is able to flash CM 10.1 jflteatt to show me the getproc output, or more specifically their getproc | grep product.name, getproc | grep product build.

Also, the setproc command will allow me to put whatever string I want in there, which should also make the assert statement pass..

Anyway, thanks for looking into.

If you can offer anymore information based on what I've given you from Download Mode it would be helpful.

Thanks,

What happened is that flashing the Canadian version made your device think it was a Canadian device. They have different model numbers. It is most likely in your build prop that you will be able to see it.

Update on this

After installing CWM 6.0.3.2 over OUDhs (with ROM manager properly knowing my phone model) everything is working perfectly now.

OUDhs allows you to install the nightlies without failing the verification... then ROM manager allows you to install the proper CWM recovery

Either that or they fixed something as of 0617 in the ROM

Just for anyone who experiences the same issue.

Thanks for everyone's help.

They didn't, because it's indeed a Li-ion battery, but of the type Li-ion Polymer. Li-ion Polymer just a variant of Li-ion. The primary difference is that the lithium-salt electrolyte is not held in an organic solvent but in a solid polymer composite such as polyethylene oxide or polyacrylonitrile. The advantages of Li-ion polymer over the lithium-ion design include potentially lower cost of manufacture, adaptability to a wide variety of packaging shapes, reliability, and ruggedness. It is basically the same, except the physical shape and size where Li-poly can be thinner and smaller.

I don't think sub zero temperatures are good for the cristals inside the battery. But if you want to conserve a li-ion battery for a long time, you should keep it at low temperature (just above zero degrees C) and have it charged to 50-60% of it's capacity.

I don't see your need to bad mouth me, I was offering you some advice, whether it's Li-Ion or Li-Po is irrelevant to my point, either way, the effects of switching your phone off to charge are far out-weighed by the inconvenience of it all. Both technologies (along with other derivatives) are highly advanced battery technologies, they all have their downsides, but, in the end, all batteries will have a life time.

The life time of the battery should far exceed the life time of the phone if you keep reasonably up to date.
