[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill Idol:
I flashed roms at work, bathroom on the the throne, in bed, at the dinner table, in the car while someone else was driving of course, in a supermarket, restaurant, waiting to see the doctor you name it I probably flashed there. Haha awsome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] spetzuu:
Moderators please delete/lock thread. Off topic and has nothing to do with note2 specifically.

Sent from my AK-55

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Same, but I flashed while driving before. It was late and I was only car on the free way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill Idol:
But this does have to do with the Note 2 because I flashed roms for the Note 2 in all these different places.

Oh yeah, also flashed ROMs in the Operating room but with no patient in the room of course. Haha awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Same here, I dont anymore but I've flashed this sucker and quite a few other phones while driving.

The weirdest place I've flashed would probably be in post-op recovery room. I had just woke up, from having a new procedure to hopefully help my back pain, and found out my favorite rom had an update so I flashed immediately!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
There was this guy in a trench coat walking around the mall parking lot looking shady. obviously trying to flash some girls. so to get him back I flashed him. at the same time I was flashing a new rom.

so I flashed while flashing a flasher.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
I flashed while pounding my wife from behind :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
And we have all been beaten.

Thats the best one I think I have ever heard, my fiancée would be super pissed if I did that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] geoff5093:
Dude you just joined last month and have 40 posts, what gives you the right to request that someone else's thread be deleted or locked because you don't like it?

Anyways, I've flashed ROM's on the bus, at the dinner table, right before work when I know I'm late (and continue setting the phone up at stop lights, lol).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jsuch2002:
Haha.... I've done the same!!! Flashed on the way to work.... Setting phone up while walking in!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JamesPumaEnjoi:
Lol the guy who asked for this thread to be deleted or locked is a douche nozzle....this is a great question....I've flashed while getting a blowjob before but its my GF she knows the deal don't play while I'm setting my phone up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Wow me too! I flashed while pounding your wife from behind too.

Seriously thigh that's the winner of she didn't know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aaltink:
Lol the best way of flashing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
That's why you do slient flashes or make strange noises she she is focused more on your absurd sounds than the fact that you are flashing while pile driving that hoe

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] halmo20:
I am running wifi tether app and everything works fine except my Roku. The problem is that Roku tries to ping my phone before it established a connection. Some trouble shooting revealed that I am not able to ping default gateway for wifi tether app; it just times out. I checked on another phone (Razr) and I can ping it's default gateway just fine. And I remember that my Roku connected to wifi tether just fine when I was using it on GS3.... So it looks like it's something with the One. Does anyone have any idea?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leandronb:
hello guys. i want to do this downgrade but i have some questions.

1-will my clockworkmod recovery still works in 4.1.2? i am using the version compatible with 4.2.2.

if i want to jump right on a 4.1 custom rom is it possible? just wipe and flash? i dont want to brick my device. thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
IMO, you should forget about nandroids and start fresh, grab 4.1.2 factory image from someone and flash it, reboot, done.

a manta wrote this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leandronb:
i tried yesterday and worked. flashed stock 4.1.2, flashed cwm again. then flashed revolution hd 6.0 with 4.1.1 android version. soooo much smoother than 4.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] camf3xu:
I know its all personal preference, but I don't get a chance to check the forums as much as id like. I'm looking for something with speed and performance. I don't want to have to deal with a lot of problems tho. I'm currently running clean ROM which I felt like it was the best at the time, but their may b something better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Now there is Plasma, Core, BoneStock, Goodness,Hyperdrive,MOAR,Axis and MDOB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
But you have time to post and you are still online after 14 min?

Just read the op of each rom. You are gna get mixed results either way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] camf3xu:
? App was left open, you always act hostile towards people asking questions? I'm asking what ones has the most bells and whistles but still has performance and speed. not what their features are
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manchild83:
I am a fan of beantown's and synergy's roms they have a great mix of features and stability.

Just personal preference though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] camf3xu:
Thanks for your reply. Is beantown new? I've checked out synergy b4.

Is hyperdrive worthwhile?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
Synergy or stock. depending om my mood
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] camf3xu:
The short time I was on synergy I felt like my battery life suffered. Is it better now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
I've yet to run a bad rom. I stick with tw based ones so I know everything work. Beans, clean and synergy are all worth running.

Just read the thread of you have time and at the very least, the op.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JediMindTrixx:
I'd have to say my two favorites are Hyperdrive and AxisM... On my SIII the new lean kernel was fast and smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PaulG1488:
All the time you are using checking back on this thread could have been used to read some rom ops to see what would suit you best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Not hostile but you won't understand until you actually see hundreds of these everyday that's why there is a search button or even categories within a certain device. It may sound dumb to say but it's the truth and people complain why they are being hated on. This is a developers site not a daddy website for people to link you wherever you please. And still I'm sorry if I sound a but rough but it's the truth of what people tend to do after even reading the rules.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graathor:
Hello xda community!

History: Yesterday I bought a jailbroken LG p990 off craigslist. All seemed fine, I could tell the guy had opened it up, but it was put back together nicely, no scratches - basically out of the box.

Problem: When I got home, I tried the camera app, but it kept crashing and timing out. On occasions I could get past the crash but the camera preview was black, and when I took a picture it would just capture a green screen. Now my first inclination was that the camera was broken, but the behavior from the app it's self is puzzling. When I get past the crash, it runs slow is delayed and just does not work properly at all. So what I am wondering is if this can be caused by faulty frimware/kernel after the jailbreak.

My Troubleshooting: I am new to rooting/jailbreaking/rom/kernel flashing so I spent about 6 hours learning as much as I could yesterday. After alot of reading, I figured a flash of the rom/kernel might reset the firmware for the camera app: (similar problem: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1841750). Got my self familiar with CWM and flashed a few different ROMs and Kernals onto the phone to no avail. (Dominationm, Cyanogenmod 7).

Other Options: Since I am so new to ROM/Kernel flashing, I may have not chosen the right flash - so I am wondering what might work (if this is the case). Another reason im guessing this isnt working is that when the guy put the phone back together, he didn't connect the camera properly. (I know enough to take a phone apart and put it back together so thats my next venture). *OR* the camera is just broken and I got scammed.

What I need help with from the XDA community: Could someone venture a reason as to why this might be happening? Can a camera's firmware break after jailbreaking or rooting? Is there a ROM/Kernel that can fix this issue or even a patch?

*Interesting link on a patch for similar camera issue with 4.0.4 non stock kernels*: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1772931

Phone Info:

Model: LG Optimus 2x

Android Version: 2.3.7

Baseband version: 1035.21_20110725

Thanks for taking the time ladies and gents. :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EricSV85:
I would like to go through and completely clean out my phones storage. By that I mean deleting all the old files that uninstalled apps created, empty folders, and other things that most ROMs don't bother to remove. I realize that it isn't really necessary, and why ROM makers don't really do it. I just feel compelled to do it.

For example;

At root there is the DATA folder but also a DATA_1, DATA_2, and DATA_3 folder that are just empty. Are these folders necessary? If I were to delete them and some system process needed them would they just be recreated? There are a ton of other empty folders throughout the file system that I would love to just delete.

Speaking of the DATA folder, it contains a DATA folder... It's great that all these ROMs remove the bloatware but within this secondary DATA folder sits old files related to these removed apps. Can't these be safely deleted?

The default wallpaper is easy enough to find and delete, but where are the other wallpapers that come preloaded? Seems to me like there may be a ton of little files out there that could be deleted to add up to a decent amount of space.

I supposed what I am really asking is what the best resources out there are for determining what's really necessary and what's deletable. Googling random file names only gets you so far. Heh. Maybe I should just flash a ROM and forget it, but I am just too OCD!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hlxanthus:
Delete what you will. Anything needed will be recreated. Some apps might store stuff there, but all core system data is stored on the data partition.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
/data/data is a valid partition. Also, you aren't gaining anything by deleting the stock wallpapers, etc except space that you cannot use- they lie on a reserved partition that is a set size.
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
Hey all. I posted this in the wrong forum by accident, so reposting here. Also, this may have been asked before but I did a search and couldn't find a thread quite like it!

I am currently running Android 2.3.3 and HTC Sense 2.1 on my HTC Desire S. I have used the Revolutionary method to S-OFF and root the phone, which allowed me to uninstall branded bloatware and add some interesting apps.

I have not been able to update the phone as quite frankly I have no idea what I'm doing, and the OTA update will brick the phone. Can anyone please tell me what I need to do to get the latest version of Android and HTC Sense?

I'm in the UK on the Three network. After doing an extensive search for the specific RUU matching that, I can't seem to find it unfortunately.

Many thanks for your time.
[HTC Desire S] ContactFront:
I'd suggest you just flash a custom sense rom from dev section, which is very easy to do. and a lot of those are better than the HTC ICS rom

If you really want to go back to stock HTC, follow this video guide, check video description for links

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X71RtQQjbqk

You can find 3 branded RUU here, at the bottom of the list

http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Saga
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
Ahhh thanks so much for that list! There was a forum post I found with details on how to unroot, but all the links to the RUUs were dead. Does it matter which RUU I use so long as it's meant for the UK? I can't seem to find the one for Three network, unless it's under "H3G_UK"...
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Is your phone branded? If not, just use the Europe ruu
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
thwbyan mon

Well it has a Three network splash screen and sadly it's still locked to the network, but other than that I don't think so
[HTC Desire S] ContactFront:
Yes that's the one:o
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
I'm very sorry to have to bump this, but I followed the instructions that I was given and ended up with the infamous Error [140].

HBOOT-0.98.0000

RADIO-38.03.02.14_M

eMMC-boot

Mar 10 2011,14:58:38

And when I try to use the OTA update, it goes straight into this Fastboot screen. I literally have no idea what's going on now.
[HTC Desire S] Juniorss:
you must install the original RUU, which will remove all your data and install original ROM Android 2.3.3, recovery, hboot and radio

i suggest RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed-ORIGINAL.exe from here http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Saga

or you can put this zip on your sd card, and install it from bootloader: http://dfiles.eu/files/bh4avk6uz (easier method)
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
Thank you for your link and RUU file. I tried running the Europe RUU.exe, but came up with "Error 131: Customer ID error". Still the same information in the bootloader as before though.
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
Sorry to bump this again, does anyone have a fix?

Or would it be easier to root and s-off once more then flash a rom that was similar to stock?
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
probably be easier to s-off and flash ice cold, it's the closest to stock with none of the bugs of stock

Never interrupt me when I'm eating a banana.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LT nicles:
Hi folks

How do you hide photos on the Z? I have tried moving the photos with file commander but this is still showing in the gallery and shortcut on my main screen? are they any apps or ways of deselecting folders on the gallery or album app?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Krypton:
Try hide it pro from the market ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faelz:
try create a folder starting with a dot, like: .photos.

and put the pictures there...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjennings:
In the folder where you want to store and hide photos create a file called .nomedia then move the photos into the folder.

If you add the .nomedia file to an existing folder you may need to wipe Gallery data before it takes effect. Works on Sammy and HTC, haven't tried it myself on Sony.

OR, if rooted, get LUKS Manager from the market. Works like Windows Truecrypt.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dreiundachzig:
I think media storage is more important. You also better reboot your phone.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flashben:
Or you can download quickpic app to hid the folders for you..

it actually only create .nomedia file for you..
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taopg7:
Install 'hide it pro' app downloading via Google play store, its free and after installation it will be renamed as audio manager, and tapping at 'audio manger' you will be able to install your password and you can view your hidden photos, videos. You can encrypt your data also.

And if you have root acess, you can hide your app downloading its plugin, located at advanced settings. Then you can launch your app calling @ ##yourpassword .
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xchasa:
To hide your porn, clear data in media storage and album apps after renaming the .folder.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjennings:
I tried Hide It Pro but prefer LUKS. Hide It just seems to change the name of your file and copy it to an obscure location, but you can still find it with a file explorer. I didn't try the encryption but it looked to me like it would only encrypt individual file(s)?

With LUKS, you create a password-protected encrypted volume (can take a while) and then you mount it. Once the volume is mounted it looks like a regular folder. You can create whatever folders you want and just cut/paste any filetype into it. Encryption is on the fly so you don't need to encrypt/decrypt files. In any file explorer, browse to a file in the volume, double-click and the file opens....pictures, music, videos, spreadsheets, text files etc, all open transparently out of the mounted volume. When you dismount the volume you cannot see inside it.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LT nicles:
Tried changing a name of an existing folder to .saved and the folder disappear completely ?? any reason why this happened?

And tried creating a new one with .pvt ,sadly this not work, ast the folder created cant be seen?anyone experienced this problem before?

Just to clear the matter, lady friend sent me a bikini photo, not porn or any sort but since the album shows all on the Z, had a lot people want to check my phone out scanning through my photos etc which made me wonder if there is an app to ensure privacy.

Hide It Pro works well Thanks guys!! :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
Hey there, I have been trying all kind of ssh-tunnel apps in the market but none seem to be smart enough:

I want to automatically route all my phones traffic through an ssh-tunnel as soon as my phone connects to a wifi which is NOT on my trusted list.

The common "SSH-Tunnel" has a similiar future but just the other way (which makes it useless when looking at it from the security-perspective) -> it will connect to the ssh-tunnel once you connect to a wifi you selected. Which is useless, a wifi which i select is most likely trusted.. I want the ssh-tunnel on everything I don't trust ;)

Anyone can recommend smth ?

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShiningRaven:
Hey guys,

I've been using this website as reference for years but never had an issue I hadn't already seen asked.

I've been looking for weeks for a solution to this and haven't found anything.

I tried to flash cm10.1 over my stock 4.1.2 and corrupted the system.

It was booting directly to AP Fastboot and showing an error about not calling the ROM properly.

I tried reflashing using RSD Light 5.7 but every time it tried to flash the system it said the phone returned failed.

So I upgraded RSD to v6.1 and tried again. This time the phone says it flashed properly but it freezes during the droid boot logo.

I've tried using the utility and it gives me the same results.

I can get into factory recovery and I've performed several hard resets. But the phone still freezes whenever it tries to load the system.

I'm using a Motorola Factory Cable on a high speed USB port.

Any ideas why I'm stuck in a soft brick that I can't flash out of?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzlot:
Format system via any of the custom recoveries before flashing your new ROM - this will wipe out any leftover problems completely & should let you start 100% fresh with a new ROM.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShiningRaven:
I lost my root when I originally got stuck in fastboot. And I can't boot up the phone until I can get it fixed.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzlot:
Can you get back into fastboot now? If so

Use fastboot to flash a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP or OUDHS)

use the recovery to factory reset, wipe cache/dalvic, AND format system (sometimes in the advanced menu)

then flash rom of your choice.

If you can't get fastboot working you'll need smarter help than I can give you... but the format system step clears out all kinds of gremlins.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShiningRaven:
I can get into fast boot but I don't have an unlocked boot loader to flash anything custom.
