[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bebeloneovvl:
Like the title says, I have an At&t model, and been doing research and the note 2 seems to be a ccommon denominator on this issue. My wife has an GS3 with Jedi custom Rom and doesn't have any issue with the app. I have a dual boot kernel and the problem persist only in the Jedi X14 but when I boot to PA 3.60,the issue is not there, other than very low quality image. Thanks in advance for any help or workarounds.

[LG Optimus G Pro] stevefxp:
Hello all,

I just factory reset my OGP and when I setup my Google account I expected an option to restore my settings and apps that were previously on my OGP, but alas no such option and its like I have a clean device. I now have to go and re-install all my apps and setup all my configuration options once again. Is there an option I am missing that should allow this? I have had this on every other Android device.

Steve
[LG Optimus G Pro] Jammol:
Its because the phone is already preloaded with att's stuff. And the version of play store that's on there didn't support restoring.
[LG Optimus G Pro] stevefxp:
Then what is the option to restore apps and settings after a factory restore. Its really painful to go set it up again.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Jammol:
Titanium backup is what you'll have to use to restore apps. Other than that I have clue. I know your contacts will get restored by default though.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] the-blind-bandit:
I recently downgraded my rom from cm10.1 to cm10 on my xperia t because cm10.1 made my phone get very hot and this fixed the issue, however now I cannot delete anything with root explorer and when I want to download a picture from the browser it immediately says download unsuccessful, Im not sure if the two are linked but I cant find any answers that work. I think it might be something to do with anti-piracy as there was something that stopped me from installing apks before though I could just disable that in app manager but this is quite different.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dully79:
Make sure your directory isnt set to read only.

In root explorer there is a small button at the top reading either "Mount R/W" or "Mount R/O", it needs to read "Mount R/O".

If it doesnt press it to toggle between settings.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turlulu:
hello there,

today i received an iphone and i want to transfer my contacts to it, i think the best way is to use Google contact sync.

Unfortunately my old android phone is broken and sent to trash. But i have backed up my contacts2.db to my computer, do you know if there a way to transfer my contacts to Google contacts without using a phone ?

there such tools available ?

thanks much :good:

Hi, I benchmarked two of my favorite ROMs today and I thought posting it and opening a benchmarking thread would be useful.

I tested with this format/methodology

ROM version

Kernel version + kernel stetting (default or tweaked parameters)

Linaro or not

AnTuTu Benchmark - excluded 3D + Battery life test /+Stability test

With apps / clean ROM (straight after flash)

2 min after boot

unplugged from powersource

No apps running in background according to "recent apps"

Brightness level ~18%

My list:

XenonHD + Matr1x 9.5 - Linaro according to forums (but not listed in feature list) - Includes all my apps (not clean)

General score: 13725

CPU 4101/3874

Ram 3334

SD card 150/180

Stability test: not yet

crDroid + Matr1x 9.5 - Linaro - Includes all my apps (not clean)

General score: 13922

CPU 4131/3974

Ram 3355

SD card 139/164

Stability test: not yet

My subjective summary: - Just tried a clea out-of-the-bxx- rom benchmarking; meh...seems like I'm getting inconsistent results.

crDroid feels more smooth but seems to have to a little less features (like lock-screen transparency and lacks certain animations (like status bar) - but it has for example lockscreen wallpaper which XenonHD lacks. XenonHD featuers small volume steps which is a huge feature crDroid is lacking and also features PA's PIE controls).

Overall two great ROMs out of which I'm using crDroid.

I'll add clean results later today.

Please post your results in the format above if you may :silly: thank you!

Anybody got the araree amy case? Looks amazing but never heard of them before. Let me know if anybody has the case or have ever had an araree case and how the quality is. Thanks!

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jimlmackjr:
nice looking cases but they come from Korea so probably almost two weeks with the shipping
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] abehbeh:
I wouldn't mind the 2 weeks shipping as long as the case is worth it. I love the design but don't want to risk it. I might just get the spigen neo hybrid instead if nobody has any info about the brand or case.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Do a quick search and you would find that this is a quality case brand. They made cases for the s3 and iphone as well.

Most korean cases have really good quality even mercury which is the budget korean case option.

I will be getting one of these soon (red/black) version. If you don't mind waiting 2-4 weeks for me to come back with a review... hang on tight.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] abehbeh:
Lol I dont think I can wait that long for a review but thank u. U def boosted my confidence. I might just take the leap n get it. I love the red n black one as well. Appreciate it!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] high kick:
i want one of these cases too. i'm afraid by the time it arrives, the galaxy s5 will be out.

by the way, they're available at casefanatic also:

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] lambstone:
Korean Post is usually fantastic in their delivery speeds.

Anyway, S5 won't be out so soon, not since they announced plans for at "S4s" with the S800 processor.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] abehbeh:
I did a quick search on araree but couldnt find too many reviews, in english at least.. I do see that they made cases for the galaxy and iphone series in the past but I dont know if that can be used as a testimate to the quality of the galaxy s4 cases.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] David Baek:
Thanks !!

Hi, there-!

This is David from the brand araree in Korea. I just found you wrote. Hope you find my reply soon.

We've designing many cases in addition to the works on the website. The website is now updating since we just several hot items. Well... as I'm currently working in this company, I'm pretty sure about the quality and design.

Please contact me if you need some more sources...

Thanks for your interest ! :laugh:

Hope you can post some impressions and pictures! I'm interested in buying this case off eBay, but I am curious on what it feels like before committing.

I've had one for about 3 weeks now and have absolutely loved it.

I'll post pictures when I can tomorrow. I have the teal/pink one.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] foolie:
What does it feel like in the hand? Is it like a matte soft touch finish? Does the case add much thickness to the device?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] cccoltsicehockey:
I will post some pictures once they come in.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] foolie:
just bit and purchased the red/black one for 47$ on ebay via EMS shipping, link here for those interested ($31 total for free shipping). I should have it by next Weds. This is probably the prettiest case I've seen for the s4.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] suprafreak1000:
a tad bit of thickness. But nothing like a commuter or anything from otterbox. It's still pretty thin. The back plastic piece had a pretty smooth feel to it, but still provides a nice grip. the rubber main piece (As I call it) has more of a matte feel to it if you will imo. Provides good grip. Still waiting to be able to get pics sowy. Should have them in the morning.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] cccoltsicehockey:
So my cases showed up yesterday. Took 10 days from when they were updated saying shipped on ebay. The quality is excellent as stated earlier. My one question will be depending on how the back plastic is colored how well will it hold up to scratches. Almost feels like a painted on finish instead of a piece of plastic that is died all the way through. Thickness wise it is a hair thicker than my Spigen Neo Hybrid case. I took a ton of pictures of my girlfriends pink and teal one and my red and white one. I just need to get them posted up.

This thread --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2340255 also contains the 3 volume hacks which were also dev'd for "Call recording support" (Loud, Moderate, Stock).

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] judas1977:
@up

of course it can be modified/themed. you just need to do some easy changes in updater script of mod packages.

To make it short: you can use only preload/symlink/system/app, not /system/app and don't have to manually write symlinks in the script...

I'm not sure if XTheme supports preload though. (-__-")
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] judas1977:
I'm not an expert but that kind of symlink makes system recognize folder /preload/symlink/system/app as /system/app
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] bomikar:
You can use the create_preload_symlinks from dsixda's kitchen. You can use it as init.d script and it will symlink all apk files from /preload/symlink/system/app to /system/app every boot.

Btw, I am going to release my own custom rom soon.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] judas1977:
@up

Init.d you say... i was wondering how to use that damned create_preload_symlinks script;). thank you.

so basically i only should enable init.d support, put there create_preload_symlinks (rename it like 04preload or its not neccesary?).
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] bomikar:
Yup. I don't think you have to rename it. I think it's good to be used as init.d script just because if you put an apk in preload/symlink/system/app and reboot it will appear in /system/app. Ans btw what is that init.d support that you have tried to include but not working?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] judas1977:
If I put new apk to preload/symlink/system/app and reboot - the app will be available with my way of symlinking too.

And yes, enabling init.d via kitchen doesn't work (there is possibility that I deleted something from the script, but other guys confirmed that it doesn't work)

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] LaXiS96:
Do not use the kitchen this way... Use it only for deodexing and other utilities, so you know what you modify in the rom and avoid errors.

Eventually you'll find out it's simpler doing it by yourself than using the kitchen.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] bomikar:
It's most likely a symlink problem. If it's in system/bin it must be symlinked in /system/xbin and if it's in /system/xbin it must be symlinked in system/bin.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] judas1977:
@up and @up x2

I'm just a beginner and surely need/will learn how to do a perfect/bug free rom;). for now i don't know linux much, and have to learn how to add init.d support and busybox manually...

thanks for support anyway
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] LaXiS96:
Not really... If it's installed in xbin then it has to be symlinked in bin, if it's installed in bin (not a good idea) then no symlinks are needed.

However, Android's PATH contains both /system/bin and /system/xbin so there shouldn't be any need to symlink it in either place, but as I maybe have heard, Android allows execution only from bin (even with a+x permissions) [and this doesn't make sense].
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] bomikar:
I'm a beginner too, but to add busybox manually you have to download it from busybox.net and then compile it. Honestly, I didn't manage to compile it successfully :laugh:

EDIT: I compiled it. Not sure it will work.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] LaXiS96:
I compiled BusyBox 1.21.0 just yesterday with no problems on an Ubuntu 12.04.2 box using CodeSourcery release 2009q3-67 (the one which samsung states in its source packages for our phone)... For a simple compilation you just need to check "Compile as a static exacutable" and "Don't use /usr" and set the cross-compiler prefix to "arm-none-linux-gnueabi-" while having set the PATH variable to point to the compiler's bin folder (the cross-compiler prefix may depend on your compiler).

Meh ATM I am studying how to add init.d to my ROM too!

Couldn't it just be taken from other rom, where busybox is working?:)

Good, when i return i'll ask you for help:).

anyway, i'm now on... stock Gingerbread, no root. I need gps and for me it works totally randomly on MF1.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] LaXiS96:
This the snippet of my updater-script:

ui_print(" Installing BusyBox 1.21.0");
set_perm(0, 1000, 0755, "/system/xbin/busybox");
symlink("/system/xbin/busybox", "/system/bin/busybox");
run_program("/system/xbin/busybox", "--install", "-s", "/system/xbin");

Obviously first you need to put the busybox binary in system/xbin of your update.zip and then extract the directory on the phone.

I am a Linux enthusiast, I like compiling things :p

I am always willing to help anyone when I can!
