+1. It's a personal preference. Neither is better. Don't you guys read the rules on best threads?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I prefer twrp 2.5.0.2 . I'm not a fan of the controls and menu layout in cwm.

Twrp 2.5.0.3 isn't as stable as 2.5.0.2 in my experience however. There is a flashable zip for .2 in the twrp thread for those who want to "downgrade"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
They are both great recoveries. I love the fact you can mass wipe dalvic cache, system, data, and cache in one swipe using TWRP, but I have to use CWM to flash Hyperdrive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mbh87:
Another vote for TWRP here. Backups are much smaller compared to CWM as well.

I have the shabbypenguin-oudhs cwm recovery that auto lokis whatever you flash. Does the twrp do that also? I've read some posts that sound like it does but haven't found a real answer.

No, but it isn't necessary. Have you seen a single kernel or recovery that's been posted and wasn't already loki'd?

Twrp supports extFAT and my 64 GB sdcard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bkhorn:
I don't use either one. I have found my S4 runs very fast using PhilZ Touch Recovery. It is touch base and supports exFat and ext4. When it does a wipe it wipes the System also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
Another for TWRP. Coming from the Bionic and having safestrap 3.05 and then 3.11 it was based on TWRP 2.2.2.1 or something if i recall correctly. A friend uses CWM on his GS2 Skyrocket and thought I'd have to use it but now he's also on TWRP.

I'm using for all the same reasons, it does everything needed and great UI and built in keyboard. never had a failed anything.

Device is $650 US without the camera of course and it is sim unlocked. Unfortunely, I haven't been abe to get the extended rom unlocked so I just soft reset after Hard reset and the unhide the rom and install all but cingular's customization files and then add my own. If warranty is ever needed a good hard reset will put it back to specs. Best thing is it is $650 simfree without contract instead of $899 US like expansys and much better built like the 02 XDA IIs

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] GraveDigger88:
I bought my SGS2 in Oct. 2011 and I have had no problems up until 5/28. I had been using Task650 rom for a looooong time with no problems. After I updated to the newest version of the rom last week, I decided to try the quick charge toogle. Charged it to 80% and left. From that day on, my battery would not charge to 100%. The next day I got it up to 80 than 60 and now I cant get my phone to charge past 35%. Thinking that it might be the kernel in the 5/28 update, I flashed over to AJ kernel and than I tried Siyah kernel. No luck. I than tried a different rom with Shostock and still no 100% charge. I have now unrooted the phone and I still have the battery problem. I think it might be the battery since its almost 2 years old but I guess its better just to update to the S4 before I dump any money into an old phone. Now before I get flamed by all the haters on XDA, the reason I am posting this is to see if anyone has had a similar problem. Could it be possible the fast charge option fried my battery or something more sinister?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shawn:
It's technically possible that's what happened. The way quick charge works, it ups the chargers output until a certain percentage is reached on the battery. As far as I remember, it's never worked on this device in my experience.

Dude you need a new battery. That's all. No big deal. Also, fast charge is worthless. Doesn't really do anything. For those upset that androids don't charge as fast as I phones, have you tried using one while charging? I was on Facebook for 3 minutes and it was hot enuff to melt cheese.

[HTC Droid DNA] AndroidVageta:
Trying to get MMS working on this phone using Straight Talk (AT&T).

Problem is that all my APN settings will save EXCEPT the "APN Type". It always reverts back to "default,hipri" even though I change it to "default,supl,mms". I know I'm saving it properly (not new to this whole phone stuff) and nothing is working.

Also, as a side issue...though I can't send MMS I can receive them sometimes...not all the time, but once in a while a MMS will somehow come through despite the APN Type reverting to "default,hipri"...so I don't know what's going on.

Saving the APN Type is top priority here though...any reason why it keeps changing back?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gloomyx:
Hi all,

Just went from CleanRom to Beanstalk 4.2.2. and I am encountering a couple issues. Occasionally, I get a non-responsive blank screen after either I pulled down the drawer from top of the screen or after press on an app icon. Usually this last for about 10-15 seconds, then it'll either completely crash the phone (no response) or it'll crash the OS that I'll have to hard reboot it.

I have wipe and reflash Beanstalk a few times. But still doesn't change a thing.

Any ideas?

Hmm.. I made custom splashes for evo and evo 3d back in the day with no problems but when using nbimg.exe (1.1) to try to make some for this phone I keep getting file size error and it just exits.. Not sure what to do the file size is definitely bigger than old ones were due to screen size being so much larger but don't wanna reduce the quality anymore or it will look pixelated.. Anyone know what the image file size restrictions are or a different tool for converting to nb/.img? I haven't had much luck googling it so far as all the info is usually older and out dated..

[Samsung Captivate Glide] WayfaringMonk:
Hi everyone,

I'm brand new to this forum; so, hello, my name's Kyle! Anyway, my friend just signed up for straight talk and cancelled her ATT plan. She got a SIM card from Straight Talk and put it in her unlocked ATT Samsung Captivate Glide (she bought it unlocked and it was unlocked before she put her ATT SIM card in). When she put the Straight Talk SIM in and went to set up the APN, there was nothing at all listed. I tried helping her, and tried many different configurations, waited 5-10 seconds before hitting the back button, tried using the save button, and still no APN (list said empty). When I rebooted her phone, it came up with the message that the network was locked (can't remember exactly what it said, but it's where you need to put in the 8 digit code, and it says 'dismiss' below it.) I dialed *#7465625# and it says network lock [yes].. My question is, what do I do? She bought it brand new, unlocked, so does it need to be rooted and unlocked? I read something about flashing the ROM or something? I don't know a whole lot about phones and rooting, ROM, and whatever else, but I learn quickly. I don't even really know the questions to ask right now. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

P.S. I believe she's running Android 2.2 right now
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dzl:
The phone is still SIM locked. If she is in good standing with AT&T (no money owed, no contract, or if there was a contract, she paid the terminiation fee if it was ended early), she should be able to call AT&T and ask nicely for the unlock code. She should just stress that she is the owner of the phone.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] WayfaringMonk:
Thank you so much for your response. She did exactly that today, and had no issues with ATT on the phone. The unlock code worked, and the phone is up and running. The only problem now is that she can call and text, but the data isn't working; I'm assuming it's because of the APN. I've found some APNs to try online, but every time I go to save them it takes me back to the menu with the two existing APNs and doesn't save the one I entered. I read that I should wait 5-10 seconds and hit the back button, but that hasn't worked either :( Also, one more question (sorry), if she upgrades from 2.2 to gingerbread will it create any problems? Thank you again, and in advance!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dzl:
My bad, haven't been on XDA in a while and just noticed this.

I personally don't have a Captivate, just cruising trying to learn something about some qwerty Andorid phones. 2.3 definitely won't cause any issues, I would actually suggest updating to it since it might solve some bugs like the one you are experiencing with creating a new APN. Here is my APN that works fine, incl data and mms FWIW:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] scotte9999:
She should update to 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich). It's a marked improvement over Android 2, and the Captivate runs is swimmingly.

My wife has Straight Talk on her Captivate, and this is what settings work there:

Name: Whatever

APN: att.mvno

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS proxy: proxy.mvno.tracfone.com

MMS port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri

APN protocol: IPv4

APN roaming protocol: IPv4

Everything else is set to "Not Set".

Note that if you have a "Straight Talk" SIM for the AT&T network, then there's no need to have the phone SIM unlocked. It sounds like you have a "Straight Talk" SIM for the T-Mobile network though, which requires a SIM unlock, and will unfortunately only yield EDGE speeds for data (in most of T-Mobile's network).

Anyone have a ideal why this is happening? When I am on the Internet 3g sometimes 4g depending on where I am in my house. My Internet dies, I see the 3g icon sometimes the right arrow (up green) but not the left arrow (down orange) under the 3g when Internet dies. So I have to do sometimes is to open a new Window, Even to kick start my youtube app. I have the bookmark Google page. I have to open Google page in a new window to kick the Internet going again, then go back to the window I was trying to open that can't find to open, to get the Internet working again. This kinda started maybe two ago, oh note to add they started with my 4g couple weeks ago in my area, not full. So maybe something to with the towers? Any suggestions will help and thank you all developers for all time,

A little about my phone:

1. Not rooted

2. All My poxxy are all at 0.0.0 etc. -did it months ago, right 0 at the rights spots.

3. My back cover that iam using don't have anything nfc antenna on it, iam sure it dont matter.

4. uag case

5. Setting in settings is on mobile its on cdma/lte I did automatic nothing changed

Thanks again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
if they're working on the towers, not uncommon to have network issues.

To get your internet back, just go into airphone mode, and then turn it off. The phone will reconnect.

If it's that bad and inconsistent, you may be able to complain and get Sprint to get you one of those AirWaves thing to let you use your internet to support your phone on the network.

Hi i'm new to this device, sorry if this has been asked before.

I noticed for CM10.1, the i9100G variant has RC4 for it, compared with only nightlies for the i9100.

Does this mean there's better dev support for the i9100G model? But the i9100G sub-forum seems smaller?

I want to buy the one that had better dev support & custom roms run better on, so please advise, thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edvin73:
9100G has a TI-OMAP chipset and all sources are out.The 9100 has Exynos and not all the sources are out.But overall the 9100 has slightly better specs.Well, for custom roms as CM the G version is better.;)

It's not the support that's missing but the sources.But it's also true that the last nightlies for 9100 are absolutely stable.There are just few games that are not working well.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeff243:
So the custom roms for the G are more stable? Does camera well work on both versions?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
The I9100 (still) has much more dev support than the I9100G and always has. This talk about sources has nothing to do with anything.

Having said that, given the phone was released two years ago, I wouldn't be buying one now. I'd be buying an S3 (which also has a lot of development) or even an S4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edvin73:
The camera is working well on both.But you just cannot tell, that custom roms on G are more stable.Custom roms are not just a phone thing but also developer's and 9100 has much more dev support.I gave you an answer based on your question about CM. I have a 9100 version and I wouldn't change it for a G.Few non working games on CM and CM based roms are just not enough for me.The Mali GPU is much better for me as the Power on G.And imho the G version was made by Samsung just to reduce the production costs.;)

Sources has nothing to do with anything? Tell it then to "codeworkx".;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Codeworkx has a bee in his arse over Samsung not releasing sources & enjoys the attention he gets when he regularly cracks the ****s over same. Every other dev sucks it up & produces the best rom/kernel/whatever they possibly can in spite of same.

The I9100 is the 'superior' device in every possible way (hardware, sheer variety/volume of both past & present development). If you're going to buy a two year old phone, you don't buy the I9100G unless it's either given to you for free or it's a helluva lot cheaper than the I9100 (And I mean a lot cheaper; even then I wouldn't).

He could try entering bootloader, reset and power switch at same time, then push the button below the antenna, choose his gsm freqency from there. He could also try clicking the signal icon at top right of screen and switch it on from there.
