[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
I have noticed that any ROMs based on the international base have a problem with putting my Note II into roaming whenever I am connected to my network extender at home. Any ROMs built on the Verizon base work just fine. My question is: can I backup my modem settings with TWRP, flash a ROM built on the international base and then restore the modem as the last step to get around this issue?

Sorry if this is a noob question, but I am new to Android and custom ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
The modem stays with every flash until you flash a new one, you don't have to worry about it. As for what you want to do I don't think it would matter about the Network Extender, everything you would need would be built in to the international Roms on our forums, but I'm not 100% sure as I've never came across this before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
Thanks for the information. I figured the solution probably wasn't that easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Well sting as how the modem carries over no matter what you flash then you wouldn't have a problem there. How does the extender work? Do you connect like WiFi or does the phone automatically pick it up or do you have a special app? I don't think you'd have assn issue as long as you stayed on TW but AOSP you may depending on how the extender works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
The network extender connects to a home wireless network so you are basically doing VOIP when connected to it. There is no app to use, the phone automatically uses the extender when it is available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Then it should work with any ROM.

The only thing I have found is this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2108887

The only time problems were experienced was on AOSP, and that was only due to a leaked modem that probably wasn't optimized yet, so I would bet you won't have any issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
Thanks for the link. That is pretty much exactly what happens for me with any AOSP/International base ROM. I am guessing that network extenders are a Verizon/US only device and perhaps that explains why only Verizon based ROMs properly recognize the extender. The extender itself actually works and my phone calls properly get routed through the extender. The phone however is always on roaming when connected to the extender, so if data roaming for example is turned off things get a little difficult. It isn't a huge deal really, it just keeps me from using some of the more interesting AOSP type ROMs that are available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
You could ask Scott if there is a fix for Cleanrom and ask Beans the same thing. You could also ask in the AOSP threads if there is any way for that to be worked on, its very very odd....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
Once I build up the proper post count I will see if those guys have an idea on this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
It may be something that was either taken out to make the ROM more sleek or not added to the international base.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] :
Love my jam, but this is driving me nuts.

Very frequently (approx 3 or 4 in every 5 times), whenever I do a soft reset and my Jam starts up I see a progress bar of "Synchronizing Connection" that gets stuck at 90%.

It never gets stuck at any number and remains on the screen from there on. The device "appears" to be more unstable while in this state also with some features not working properly. I have nothing unusual installed on the device (I've selected deinstalled everything) and have tried it with and without the SD card.

Anyone have any ideas or experienced something similar? Is v frustrating.

Thx,

Lawrence

How can I change the contact image. I have installed tureicon theme on Foxhound Rom. Happy with the theme except contact image. Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: contact image

I am not sure what truecion theme has to do with the contact image,

but the way to change it is to simply open contacts and long press on

a contact name and select "edit" then click on the default contact image

and you will see options to change image, take a picture, remove and

other options.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] s384:
if someone could help me out with sizing I woukd be willing to buy an extended battery and modify my commuter box to fit it.

I dont mind the size of the commuter. its great. so bonus if a bigger battery can hide in there.

seen the 5200mah battery and thought maybe? I have access to all the tools required just need the info. the case utself is about 15mm thick. with some sticking up above the screen of course. it seems to me that zerolemon one might fit. but likely not. or else the plastic would need to be planed down very very thin.

thanks in advance

thats for a defender though. I really dont want to use it. and they cost a lot. the commuter was thrown in for free with the phone and is a good size and provides the level of protection I need.

I guess I will go ahead and find a good extended battery and start engineering. I realize now the zl battery is obvioisly too big among other things. a size of 1.5 times stock battery would be perfect. will wait. and read reviews in the meantime and come back when ive built something.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twisted2nr:
Hi, so i searched and searched on here and other android forums and cant seem to find a link that works to download side load wonder machine or airsideload. All the links that i have found are dead ended or don't exist anymore for Mac. I am trying to resolve a problem on my captivate, it shows the com.google.process.gapps. I have read on other forums of how to fix this problem but cant download other apps or .apk to fix this problem because of the error. So that being said I am trying to side load the gtalkservice.apk but nowhere can i find a link that works to download a usable side loader. after everything done and said i just want to be able to download apps from the google Market. Please help been on this for a couple of days and cant find a good link. the captivate is already rooted successfully using one click root. YOUR HELP WILL BE VERY APPRECIATED
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You can sideload apps without a sideloader if you're rooted (depending on your firmware version). Although, at this point I would just flash stock KK4 with Odin to get you on stock GB. From there, you can download and flash Corn Kernel to flash a JB ROM. Perhaps you haven't reached that far yet but it's definately something you should look into.

Mind explaining how you got that error btw? And, did you try clearing your Play Store's data?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tkdking:
Introduction:

Hi everyone! I'm currently running Chip v1.5 with Entropy's kernel on my US YP-G70. It's great, but I'm wondering if there is a faster ROM to use (eg: less CPU use and less resource-consuming background processes). JoyOS seems great but I'm wary of the slow wireless connecting and iOS theme.

What I'm Looking for (MUST):

- fully working camera (taking photos and videos, and not just on fastburst)

- working wi-fi and bluetooth

- GPS compatibility with Gapps (apparently some ROMS - forgot which specifically - have GPS issues)

- Built-in non-stock launcher (as in the stock launcher is removed and some other launcher is installed as the only and default launcher)

- light (low RAM usage, like LewaOS claims 200 MB+ free)

- fast

It Would Be Nice to Have...

- customizable lockscreen built-in (or an option to disable the lockscreen so I can use WidgetLockscreen without excess processes)

- overclocking (don't worry - I won't go crazy and set it above 1.2-ish)

- Samsung bloatware removed

Closing Statement:

Please comment below to suggest me some ROMs that satisfy the above conditions. With the requirement of a working camera and bluetooth, I'm probably looking for a Stock/GB-based ROM. On a last note, I know you devs out there put a lot of work into your ROMs, so I hope I'm not coming off as unappreciative.

CM 10.1? I use a few tweaks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tkdking:
Actually, I would love to use CM 10.1 with Sultan kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2252851) to get that wonderful 441MB RAM but people keep saying that neither bluetooth nor the camera works. Perhaps the tweaks you mentioned deal with those? Btw thanks, TheKryptonite, for helping me out again.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
Bluetooth works and both cameras work (albeit you can only take pictures with the rear camera using FastBurst). There is also a video fix zip file floating around that will give you video recording functionality.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
I wouldn't really call it working when you can take 800x480 "pictures" but always something. 3mpx quality was awfuk too. I have to try that fastburst :)

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] TheKryptonite:
Why causes it to be in poor quality?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] SerkTheTurk:
Because capturing pictures doesn't work, only preview does. So they take screenshots using fast burst. But image previews are bad quality. So they're trying to fix the camera

Hey guys,

i need a downgrade without using htcdev.com.

Why without?

The Unlock_token.bin, that they send, wasn't correct. I tried to flash the token and every time it said " remote:"Unlock Token check failed"".

The Phone was rooted and unlocked, but then i have bricked it and send it to repair @ htc.

After they reinstall a new "mainbord", htvdev never work...

It's Hboot 1.53.0007... -> so, revolutionary doesn't work...

It's there a chance to downgrade without unlocked Bootloader?

Or unlock the Loader without htcdev?

Hi all

Can anyone help me here.....

When I get an SMS, the message pops up but no sound plays.

I have assigned "Alarm 1" to the "Messaging: new Text message" in settings, sounds & notifications. I have checked "play sound" and "display message on screen".

When I hit the play button in the sounds and notifications tab the alarm plays

Volume is set for the PDA

Thanks in advance
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sakinah:
i need to know how to do this also
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] :
Figured this one out today!

Start - Settings - Sounds and Notification.

Select the "sounds" tab.

You must have the box next to "programs" checked and the box next to "Notifications (alarms, reminders)" as well.

If you didn't have this done, you may need to soft reset after doing it. Your master control for the PDA will also affect the sound level of your SMS message (not the phone volume).

good luck

using phone without SIM is better then removing those app....on some custom roms, wifi can be use while on airplane mode....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gutbusterguy:
I guess our phones run without the sim cards....right???
