Yeah ya need gsm patch to get cdma rom work on gsm.

Look out into the development section and download the patch

Flash after your rom.

Please hit the thanks :thumbup: if i evet helped ya !! :D:D
[Motorola Droid RAZR] neo.ank:
No you wouldn't need any patch. You can use all stock based ROMs on GSM network.

Just flash the ROM.

Are you using it on GSM currently.?

Seriously.?? You should avoid advising on things you don't know for certain. It might be misguiding and confusing for others too.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
Not working for me. I believe I need to flash the mako .33 radio. Is this correct? How would I do this? Thanks!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
I don't think flashing a radio would fix it. Try installing an app called GPS Test from play store. If it shows satellites in view but not in use, you will need to do the fix posted by nygfan76 in general section. If that doesn't work look for link I posted in same thread for dworrak's fix.

P.S. you can flash a radio by downloading it then wiping cache and dalvik cache then flash radio (choose install zip) .

Edit... Unless you updated partitions with teenybin. If you used teenybin you still have ics radios, then just flash jb radio.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
Thanks! However, it is showing no sattelites in view or in use...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
Ok so I did both of these. Reflashed root box - and neither GPS nor wifi are working. This is supremely frustrating.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
Have you formatted /system lately on a clean install?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
Did you get GPS working with SlickJB and ICS radio? After that try restoring a backup instead of reflashing.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
On Slick on got satellites in view (before, nothing was in view), but nothing in use.

Are you suggesting to do the following?

a) backup R-box with JB radio

b) flash back to Slick

c) flash ICS radio

d) flash JB radio

e) flash backup of R-box
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40239666&postcount=16 I reflshed radio after restoring JB ROM.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Bracemg:
You mean after restoring Rootbox? a.k.a...

1) Install ICS modem

2) Flash slick

3) Flash JB modem

4) Flash Rootbox

5) Flash JB modem

Es file explorer

If not for a great file explorer also great for connecting to samba shares and streaming media.

Trickster

Kernel settings

Titanium backup

Maybe goes without saying

Busybox

Additional terminal functionality, need this just for ping6 / some apps require it

bVNC

One of the few I found that supports a secure TLS connection
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] noahthedominator:
I do like es file explorer but Rom toolbox has one too that I like. But es is good too. total personal preference. For kernel mods I use Android tweaker. But trickster is cool too. I have used busy box a little bit and it is awesome. I used it for v6 supercharger. And bVNV i will look at. These are all great apps :)

O and for backups titanium backup is good but I kinda figured everone knew about that.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] distan7:
1. QuickPic. The fastest gallery ever.

2. exDialer. Faster than stock contact/dialer, recommended for stock ROM and CM alike.

3. Trickster Mod. Kernel tuning, adb wireless, frequency for cpu and gpu, governor and io scheduler, tcp congestion, core smartreflex and many other configurable options --- as long as your kernel has them built-in.

4. Android Tuner. Tons of control and tweaks.

5. DashClock widgets. It has so many extensions from other apps, music, weather, agenda, etc.

6. Avast Anti-virus, anti-theft, malware, firewall, sms blocking and many more. If you install a lot of apps and games, try scanning them with avast once in a while. You might be surprised with all the permissions granted to your apps.

7. Waze for GPS crowdbased info

8. Proximity Smart Cover, set to auto on, not auto off. No need to press power button when you open your cover. Or just swipe the proximity sensor.

9. Adbd insecure by chainfire in case you're having trouble obtaining root / adb remount

10. Triangle away for those who love flashing

11. AdAway.

12. CrossBreeder script. Tweaks to keep your tab snappy.

13. RealCalc. Scientific Calculator that looks familiar and non-intimidating

14. Titanium Backup.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] ElysonMorf:
quickPic and MxPlayer !

good for multimedia
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] sernzrevenge:
Puffin- fastest browser I've seen to date (with flash)

Freedom, GK2.61- if you are a gamer

ROM manager- you can't go wrong with an app that installs two different recoveries at a push of the button

Blackmart- if you like to test applications before buying (support your developers)

Touch calendar- a very nice widget (one similar to 4.0.4 stock), easily synchronized with your gmail account.

Odin mobile- easily the most useful app if you are into flashing firmware every now and then.

These aren't of personal preferences either...pretty much a must have if any category applies to you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Chronoswing:

Tasker is an awesome app that make your phone smarter. I cant live without it. And it also helps to increase battery life
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Aaron_Knowles:
I'd have to say BS Player is the best video player.

I noticed even VLC had trouble playing certain file extensions. But BS Player hasn't failed me so far. Worth a look.

This is coming from someone who has used and loved VLC on every device for many years now.

Also not sure if this works across the world or if it's just for the UK, but TV Catchup is all the Freeview channels in the UK that you can LiveStream right on to your android Device. It's great!

A guide how to add OSB for your ROM...!!!

Credits:

​

Before we begin ask yourselves a question..!!

Tools Required:

1.framework-res.apk

2.SystemUI.apk

3.Winrar or 7zip

4.Notepad++

5.Apktool or Apkmanager or Apkmultitool

6.JAVA & JDK already installed in your PC

last but not the least required thing is a fully functioning human brain..!!

STEP1:

Framework Part:

1) Take the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from rom and paste it in "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder in Apktool

2) Decompile the framework-res.apk using

3)Once decompiled you'll obtain a folder "framework-res"

4) Open it ..goto 'res\values' folder...find bools and right click to edit with notepad++ and by using ctrl+f search for

5)Rename falseto true...save file.

6) Open 'dimens' file in the same folder res\values and using ctrl+f search for navigation bar height and width and change them to whatever dpi you want and save file

7) Thats it!! compile the framework-res using the code

8)Now you will get the new apk file of framwork-res.apk in the dist folder of framework-res folder if you are using the apktool and for other tools it will be in the respective output folder

9) Now we have to sign the framework-res.apk using any apk signing software or simply use TICKLE MY ANDROID by TICKLE FISH to sign your apk by placing it in the out folder of Tickle my android and sign it by pressing button 15 to sign apk file under theming menu(2)

10)thats it now your rom will have OSB

Note: If you dont want OSB in landscape view also..then type 0.0dip like this... in res\values\dimens

STEP2:

System UI part:

1. using 7zip or winrar OPEN the SystemUI.apk and navigate to res>drawable_mdpi (if drawable_mdpi is not present go to drawable_hdpi) and just drag and drop this folder "drawable_mdpi (or) hdpi"where you are working

2. search for these png files in the folder

ic_sysbar_back
ic_sysbar_back_ime
ic_sysbar_home
ic_sysbar_menu
ic_sysbar_recent

if they are present thats done if they are not present you'll have to add them into the folder with dimensions of your choice

3. Thats it NOW you have OSB in your ROM

WANT TO ASK ANYTHING???

How do i add them man...??

STEP3:

CREATING A FLASHABLE ZIP

1) Download Sample.zip but dont extract it..just open the sample provided with winrar...you will see 2 folders META-INF and system.

View attachment 2027370

2) In system there will be two folders framework and app...

Drag the new framework-res.apk to framework folder...

and the SystemUI.apk folder to app..

3) META-INF has info about flashing...goto com..google..android and open update-script file with notepad++...you can edit whatever you want in

ui_print (" ") ...it will be displayed while installing...Save file..

Done your flashable zip is also ready to be flashed using CWM recovery

Feel free to ask questions if you have any coz this tutorila/guide is n-o-o-b friendly :victory: :angel:

P.S add me to your credits if you manage to get OSB working in your rom using this GUIDE/TUT

Hi Bro.

this is my first editing :fingers-crossed:

has been successfully :highfive: Thank you very much

EDIT

i can't hide OSB on landscape i make it 0dpi but still big i think 48 !

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">34.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">48.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">0.0dip</dimen>
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Aneel:
you must edit it in framework-res.apk bro

Decompile The Framework-res And Navigate To /res/values/dimens.xml

Then Find These Lines

Code:

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">22.0dip</dimen>

<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">22.0dip</dimen>
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mo7mD.ZaYOnA:
from framework-res.apk

/res/values/dimens.xml

i find these lines

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">48.0dip</dimen>

<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">48.0dip</dimen>

Change height to 34dip

and add this line to disable in landscape

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">0.0dip</dimen>

but it's still work in landscape :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Aneel:

No

it's work good now via your method
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Ticklefish:
This is a very cool tutorial and thanks for saying thanks for Tickle My Android. :thumbup:

However, I should point out that you can use Tickle My Android for more than just signing the apk. It can be used to take the file from your phone, decompile it, recompile it and put it into a flashable zip.

Saves having to download lots of different programs when you can do what you need with just one...;)

Well if you need 4.x.x then go with a jellybean ROM like paranoid android. I've used it for a while and its great. It doesn't support cloud though and like all jellybean Roms gaming isn't as good as GB and sound isn't as loud.

I seem to remember the S3 having 2GB of ram too, also used up by the OS.

You must have had the international version... Only 1gb in the US.

I should never have to manually free up ram when I gave 2gb.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SonicJoe:
Before I moved to CM, I never had RAM issues. The most I ever saw used was 1.2, and that was only once. Most of the time, my phone sat around 800-900 MB in use.

Also, bloat aside, Linux has a habit of filling and using all available RAM, but in an efficient way. You can't look at your Android phone the same way you look at a Windows PC. Low available RAM isn't definitely a problem, because a lot of that may be idle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metallice:
Exactly. Android will use the RAM it has to work with. "Full RAM" being detrimental to performamce hasn't been an issue since froyo.

More RAM meens more apps can be kept cached for fast opening... Consuming neither CPU cycles nor battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] windstrings:
I agree with all that, however when using the phone intensively bouncing in and out if several apps and videos etc... The android system seems it likes to hold on to non used programs too long rather than realizing ram is getting short and shutting them down.

With casual "take your time" use its great, but when getting intense it's not.

Does android look at idle time of an app before shutting it down, or does it look at resources?

To me, it doesn't seem like it handle the latter very well.

Alan.. Sent with Galaxy S4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Fu5ion:
If you find that its actually detrimental, then try raising your minfree value. But like others have said, with linux based systems (like android) "full" ram means an efficient system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chrishoyt2012:
Are you talking about the s3 only having 1gb ram? Us versions had 2gb...same with the s4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] windstrings:
I stand corrected you're right I had it backwards, I guess I'm updating to fast to keep up with what I have. I just got my S4 and I'm already looking towards the note 3 I hope it has more RAM.

I'm certainly not an expert on Android system and yes I've been in Windows since version 3.0.

I guess it is what it is. I have an app called clean Master, it sounds like you guys don't believe in those programs? It alerts me when it has a gig of ram that can be freed up . So you are saying it's better leave those apps open in RAM so it takes less time to activate them when opening?

I somehow have more faith in free RAM then I do and having 50 apps on standby.

Historically Android is not absolutely efficient and RAM is.

When I moved from one gig of ram to 2 gigs of ram I noticed a notable difference in the smoothness and quickness of the phone, yes the processor was faster too but it felt like the RAM was the ticket
