[Motorola Droid Bionic] chrisp6825:
Avatar Rom was a work to bring MUIU to bionic. I only tried it during its early stages, but there was nothing bad about it, the dev did seem more interested in bringing more themes/customization than bug fixes in my opinion.

Also, it was my first time to load up anything relating to muiu. I'd say it's worth a try if you got the time. I loaded it up on ICS (as you can see I'm still there), i wouldn't know if it'd work on JB or if the Dev brought it up to date

Looks like it is up to date on the JB kernel, and scrolled over quite a bit of a change log.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I just recently rooted my Verizon Galaxy S4 and swiftly installed Rom Manager. I have used ROM manager in the past before I owned an iPhone when the Moto Droids were popular. Upon installing I flashed the recovery over to CWM - However, when I reboot into recovery I still receive the default stock options. I even purchased the CWM Touch recovery to see if that would work, sadly it did not.

I am stuck as to what to do here, I have googled the problem and cannot seem to find a cure. I can not do anything with CWM - When I click backup current ROM it simply reboots into the stock recovery.

If anyone can help me with this issue I would be extremely appreciated

Thanks,

Christopher
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
Did you remember to go to Rom Manager > Recovery Setup > Click ClockworkMod Recovery (Under INSTALL OR UPDATE RECOVERY) > Then click on the Samsung Galaxy S4 (Verizon).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
Yes, since that is the only way to download and install the recovery that is what I did...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
You might want to email the developer or get a mod to move this thread to the Q&A forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I will email the developer the link to this thread.

Surely I am not the only one with this problem...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
I was able to flash it with no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
Do you mind telling me exactly what you did (even rooting wise) - I used some compiled package that was on droid life I believe. It had all the tools compiled and was the closest thing to a one click without being one click. I think it even attempted to flash the recovery. However, that is how I rooted my device. I didn't flash another rom. Still on the stock rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
I just rooted the device. Switched to SuperSU, restored all my programs via Titanium Backup. Then I flashed CWM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I have read conflicting posts about this but is your bootloader unlocked? I read that the bootloader was unlocked before the phone was even released - Then I read somewhere else that the Verizon bootloader was super locked down and not cracked yet. Obviously, you would need some bootstrap or the bootloader unlocked before the device would even be able to use a custom ROM. Did you flash the phone to get root, or did you use all kinds of different tools to do so?

EDIT:

this is the method I used - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41718543
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
That's the same method I used but I didn't unlock the bootloader. I just did the root them installed the recovery from the Play Store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
Please read about loki in the development forum. The bootloader is not unlocked and unlock is not needed to flash roms or recoveries.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I will read about loki - maybe when I read about loki this will be explained, however I was always under the impression that in order to install custom ROMs you have to unlock the bootloader. I know that a bootloader or bootstrap is what tells your device what operating system to boot to and if it is locked this prevents you from loading a custom ROM. If I have this all wrong, would someone care to explain? You can use technical explanations as I will most likely be able to understand what you mean.

EDIT:

reading about loki clears this up. It's simply (yet sophisticatedly) tricks the aboot into thinking the rom passes the checksum that is physically embedded into the phone and proceeds to boot the custom rom. The boot loader itself is still locked, but is bypassed.

The only problem with this is they can release an update to patch the sequence in which the checksum is done so that it cannot be loaded over itself.

My problem still remains - Clockwork Manager is not working.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
Sorry I posted it in the wrong section. If anyone knows what is wrong please let me know, I am thoroughly confused as to why this is happening. Maybe I should restore stock and reroot the device, although I don't know what that would do.

Am I supposed to install Loki? Because I never did that, I was under the impression that rom manager would do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
Do a stock restore. Then root again. Start over.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eNkrypt:
I cleared the Clockwork Mod data and also uninstalled and reinstalled the app and now it is working :D Guess it was just a fluke!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alphadog00:
What i want to do is simple, but i have never found a way to do this. I had heard Google was working on the whole sound subsystem and may address in the future, but maybe someone knows of an app...

Basically, I would like to use BT media, but have Nav sound output from the phone. Otherwise if I switch to radio or some other music source on the radio - Nav is still piped to the car BT and i can't hear it.

I would like to just leave BT on all the time on the phone, and have BT handsfree always on, BT music when i select it on the radio (for an input) but NAV would always play through phone speakers.

Any ideas?

Being the centerpiece of the Android community, I would like to see what my fellow Nexus owners think of iOS 7. I did not create this thread for "flame wars" or any thing like that but rather a place where we can all maturely discuss our thoughts on Apple's new mobile operating system.

Personally I think it looks very interesting! Certainly a change of pace from where they have been going since the beginning of iOS and that's a good thing. I do believe they took a lot of cues from Android though including the look and feel, notification drawer, and the control center. The thing I'm most excited over though is what Google has in store for us to top it (and you know they will).

That's why I love technology, competition creates awesome new things for us consumers. What are your thoughts? :)

Here's a YouTube video of it just in case you didn't see it yet:

Looks very Android-esque, esp. the messaging app and the new "style" looks very much like MIUI, however I think there's already a thread open regarding this
[General Topics] Johmama:
Last iOS7 thread was closed, let's see how this one fairs.

On topic:

My thoughts are that I don't care how they make the OS look, or even function. Until they open up their OS and make it more flexible, I will never buy a device that runs it. I don't need them to tell me what I can and can't do with the phone I've already purchased. Then again, most Android phones have bloatware put in by OEMs and are just as restrictive. Guess that's why I bought a Nexus 4, browse the Nexus 4 forums, and genuinely enjoy AOSP. I don't exclusively run AOSP, but the fact that I can, and do, switch between ROMs is why I won't be using iOS7.

[General Topics] monkeypaws:
I don't see why these threads keep getting closed just like the 4.3. Its related so ....anyways. I do applaud them for trying. But in the end their os is still closed. You get what you get and you can't change anything about it. When you buy and android phone you get more . you can make it yours . as for innovation, under all the new icons, new colors, new notification center, etc, the os is technically unchanged. But you know what, people will buy it. Some people like being told what's cool and what to buy . some don't like modifying and just want something that gets up and goes. While that may be good for some it may not be good for others.

I'd say it's starting to look more like Android, and the iPhone users who preferred the "iPhone look" (Like the missis) agreed that she won't upgrade as it's begun to stray, and then she'd rather just buy and Android phone and let me set it up for her - if those are the kinda looks she's looking for.

My girlfriend and I watched the whole conference, she has an iPhone 5, and I have to admit I was impressed with the overhaul. The semi-transparency and the white mixed with vivid colors will look great on her phone and iPad. The iPad is where I'm really looking forward to seeing it. It's about time Apple stepped up and really pressure Google to make Key Lime Pie the best OS it can be.

That being said. Not to start a debate... I personally wouldn't leave Android for iOS 7. I like my Nexus 4 too much... At least until the Nexus 5 comes out. ;)
[General Topics] Kendaihou:
Although I applaud Apple for overhauling the look of their iOS (it looks better than iOS 6 for sure) it looks like they taken features from android/blackberry/win8 and just complied it into one. Does it impress me? No it doesn't, Android is still by far more advanced than iOS will ever be and this is coming from someone who had the iPhone 4. I got tired of not being able to customize anything and have to use the phone just like Apple wants people to. Does it impress those people who use apple iPhone and apple products only? Yes it does it probably does.. I was disappointed, I was expecting Apple to come up with something new I guess but of course they didn't. "Innovative"..

I'm not one to bash Apple but....

It's like android, blackberry and win8 had a 3 way marriage and it created iOS7.

Although, their Mac Pro looked interesting.
[General Topics] LTavaress:
I think the new OS screamed "Android!!!!!!" and the new Safari reminds a bit Google Chrome for Android, specially the card-tabs (which looks identical to me).

But I also don't care if they are being inspired by Android, after all, that's a good thing, right? Back in the days people would say Android used to copy Apple, now it's going the other way!!! AND it was about time Apple did some major changes to iOS so I'm happy for'em

[General Topics] Sgt.7Eleven:
Apple has made huge leaps towards Android, but Android did so in the start too

Haha

Many people say that finally Apple has started to learn from Android: Apple finally introduced a "QuickSettings", Live Wallpapers, and many more things, which we Android users take for granted, from day one. So, KUDOS to all Android developers: this really shows the power of crowdsourcing ideas (take "HALO" from ParanoidAndroid for example)

BUT!

One thing that has been pointed out in this particular video I watched, courtesy of Marques Brownlee on Youtube:

youtube[dot]com/watch?v=QrM25jqhXdA

is that Android started out after Apple too!

Android has learnt some stuff from Apple that it has improved on its own, and that is the spirit of sharing technology. Once, we used to borrow from Apple (take MIUI) and now, Apple is borrowing from us!

It's all part and parcel of Software Development. I'm sure many devs would admit to getting many of their ideas from changes in Apple.

AND trust me, as AirDrop for Apple came out, so will something along those lines for Android. Kudos to all the devs on XDA for that. Really.

[General Topics] randomnoob83:
Everyone copies everything if you think Google came up with everything from android and didn't copy a single thing then you are wrong. But that being said the point is to copy and make in your own which I think apple has done
[General Topics] BaconPancakes:
I'm glad they're releasing IOS 7 for development review nice and early, but it looks somewhat cartoonish to me. Android has caught up with IOS in a lot of respects over the last 3 years. I think Apple is going to have to offer some seriously amazing hardware in the iPhone 5S/6 (and the one after that) to stay on top, or I think they'll be knocked out of their #1 spot in the next year or two.
[General Topics] sabre31:
So I don't get how all these people are saying iOS 7 is better and look nice and added lots of features. It is still the same old boring grid of icons. Nothing has changed to the OS itself other then a fresh paint of coat and some gimmicky features which they copied. I was waiting on an actual change and not the same old sea of icons.

Biggest change I was waiting on is widgets and ability to allow third party developers to replace stock apps and make it default. Example keyboards or different email app.

This OS is still a major fail with fresh paint of coat and nothing else.
[General Topics] godolphins13:
iOS 7 looks like a big step up. New icons (even some are ugly, it's something new), much needed toggles and updated notifications. Having said that, there is absolutely no chance that I buy an iOS 7 device just because of Apple's closed ecosystem. Android's openness is the main attraction, and is probably its greatest advantage over iOS
[General Topics] randomnoob83:
If they added widgets then it would be copying android. Its just how there os is and people like it like that because well it works for them
[General Topics] sabre31:
I hear you but kicker is they already copied some things from android. So why stop now? Also they do have widgets or whatever you want to call them in OS X already. In OS X you swipe to the screen with the various widgets you have setup. They can easily use the exact same setup on iOS. Right now you swipe to the right to get to first screen which is search. Why not have that screen use their widgets or a new screen you would swipe to.

The redesign isn't too bad, the icons were bad but besides that everything else was nice.

I think adding the control center is where I see them trying to copy Android and the style of all the fonts and texts are very Robotica.

But like another guy said, they need to open the OS.
[General Topics] 1cewolf:
I'm surprised - iOS is no longer comically outdated! No, you still don't get the flexibility of an open source platform, but iOS 7 includes enough additional features that you can see Apple is trying to improve. But the multitasking feature? Obvious ripoff from webOS is obvious.

I sure hope Google has goodies in store for Key Lime Pie, because I'm still miffed at the no-show on I/O :mad:
[General Topics] 3UR0TR45H:
As many other people have said, this looks very MIUI. Reminds me of a white version of the Oppo Find5, Mi-one or Meizu...Chinese! Not a bad thing at all but I got over that aesthetic 2 years ago.

One thing that iOS nails that Android hasn't figured out is video. The iPhone can automatically crunch a video under 50 seconds to 5mb. Even on the lowest settings, all my videos have to go to YouTube to send. Not very convenient. Also, movie studio SUCKS and so do all other android video editors IMO. iMovie is pretty powerful on the iPhone.

iOS will never equal Android in features and flexibility...it simply was never designed to do so.

I think it will be interesting to finally see a significantly different approach to ios, and the resulting improvements to android.

To be honest i don't like the new design at all. The earlier was far better and elegant. The new icons seem terribly child-like, but if in the end iOS improved then it'll definitely be good for the Android ecosystem.

I think iOS 7 is great. This is Apple's form of dealing with their drop in stock prices and loss of market share to Samsung and other competitors. I wish that they didn't need a slap in the face, i.e loss of market share to Samsung, to get off their arse's and revamp their OS.

If you're going to criticize a, "child-like" OS, be sure to include the Galaxy S4 because TouchWiz is EXTREMELY, "child-like" in every way, from it's fonts to icons. But hey, Samsung is doing great. Why change what works and why fix it if it isn't broken?
