[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AmanDahiya94:
So yesterday i try installing the CM10(CyanogenMod 10) On my XPERIA GO ST27i running JellyBean 4.1.2(Never Rooted, Updated via Sony PC Companion)

With the help of this video i started-

youtube/watch?v=O52IeX93Jek

So First of All,

I Installed the Drivers on to it USING the Android SDK .(which was Hard,cos it wont connect, and started Charging)So after long Google search i was finally able to connnect it in FastBoot Mode(Purple Light on Xperia GO)

After this was able to unlock My boot loader(No Problem here, all easy)

(Using Command Prompt)

Next, I Downloaded the Cyanogen Mod 10 FXP225 LOTUS (Latest Version) ROM and Downloaded the Google Apps

Cleared My Internal Storage, and Copied Both the Above Files on the Internal Storage.

Turned Off My Phone and connected it in FastBoot Mode

Copied the BOOT.img From CM10FXP225 LOTUS.zip File TO the FASTBOOT FOLDER(on My PC)

Then I ran "fastboot flash boot boot.img" from Command Prompt

then FASTBOOT REBOOT

THEN, the FREE Xperia LOGO Came and the LED turned light Purple/Pink and i Pressed and hold the Vol. UP button to enter Recovery

Wiped Cache, Installed the CM10FXP ROM(took about 50seconds) , Installed Google Apps(took about 20 sec)

and then I Rebooted System

After that when the Phone Turns on, the FreeXperiaLogo Appears, the LED lights up Light Purple/Pink and then Everything Closes,Turns off, Then it starts again and the Loop Continues Forever.

I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS LIKE

- wipe system, wipe cache, install CM10, wipe cache

- wipe cache, install CM10

- wipe system, install CM10, wipe cache

- etc.

ALSO tried wipe (1more cache from ADVANCED Settings cant rememberr the name)

STILL NO LUCK, THE SAME LOOP AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!

WASTED WHOLE DAY and am very frustrated now!!!!

PLEASE HELP!!! PLEASE REPLY SOON!

Thx:(:(

I read that the fxp225 for the xgo cant boot so it isnt your fault. Maybe you can check the fxp thread of your device, normally you can find there the latest news :)

The cm10 Roms are not for daily use. I would flash the ftf with the flashtool and then you are back on stock Rom :)

I'm currently on Android 4.1.2.

sdcard directory structure: /sdcard -> /storage/emulated/legacy -> /mnt/shell/emulated/0

Directory /mnt/shell/emulated/ is empty for some reason.

Recovery finds the /sdcard with correct sdcard content. There is /sdcard/0/, too. /sdcard/0/ contains the default sdcard directories in their default states.

I believe the problem started when I was flashing Android 4.2.2. It showed an sdcard that featured only the blank default directories (current /sdcard/0/). I recovered the old ROM and all was fine. However recently, after a month or so the sdcard link has failed.

My ADB does not seem to work now, that may be a problem too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Cool story bro

Use search

I did. Still haven't found anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
You didn't find anything on 4.2 multiuser support? You didn't find anything on 4.2.2 and ADB? I call bs on that.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mikuz.:
I had to re-enable the debugging mode on 4.2.2 for it to ask to authenticate my PC. I can see my files on /mnt/shell/emulated on 4.2.2. I was pretty stuck when I had no ADB working and no software to control the device on 4.2.2.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drinfernoo:
While I understand that most (if not all) ROM devs are not going to provide support if using any gapps package besides what they post in their OP, I am curious, which gapps people have had the most success with?

I have come up with a list of main ROM gapps packages, not including inverts:

1. task650's gapps - newest build 6/12/13

2. PA gapps - newest build 6/15/13

3. SlimROM gapps - newest build 6/22/13

4. Official gapps - newest build 3/1/13

5. MIUI gapps - newest build 6/23 (not sure if these are the right ones, just the first ones I found)

The two main gapps packages I tend to lean towards are task650's and the PA gapps, and I haven't flashed the official gapps package since the first time I flashed a custom ROM :D

My main curiosity is this: which gapps take the fullest advantage of the features of the widest variety of ROMs? Is it best to flash task650's if you're using an AOKP-based ROM, since his ROM is AOKP, and PA gapps on a PA-based ROM? When is the best time to use official gapps? Does the individual gapps package affect things like AOKP's Dark UI, PAC-Man's "PAC in Black", and SlimROM's TRDS?

Bear in mind, I am talking mainly about either AOKP-, CM-, or PA-based ROMs, as I don't use MIUI, even though I did include a link.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
The Gapps are nothing more than apps google won't let you package with AOSP ROMs. There isn't a ''better'' package per say, just look under system/app and check which one are included in there. Also, most of the time, the date is the latest app update so the difference you'll see is when you flash it, you might have to update your app through the store (often the case with Google Search in the past).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drinfernoo:
I know what gapps are, and what the dates mean. There are definitely packages that are different or include different apps. My question wasn't "what are gapps", but "which gapps go better with which ROMs?"
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rani9990:
Slim gapps, for example, are multi DPI because their ROM has a different DPI. Same goes for paranoid. If you're not using either ROM, then I personally use tasks gapps on my other Roms.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kbatman74:
I would say to use the gapps that is in the OP of the ROM thread. I think some of them are tweaked for the ROM. I'm guessing that if you don't use the gapps in the OP and ask the dev/devs for help you will hurt their feelings. *cough* *cough* task *cough* *cough*
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] murfi:
i currently have gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip flashed, which is the official package i assume.

do the more recent (date-wise) packages have any advantage?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drinfernoo:
The 03/01 gapps are the "official" ones, in that they come from the CM team. The newer dated packages usually have more up-to-date apps in them, and depending on the source, can have different apps entirely.

I understand the files are still there under the 0 file extension, but am I missing some kind of step for sd card photos to show up in gallery, music from sd card to show up in the player, honestly this "new" implementation is keeping me from enjoying the AOSP ROM experience...Thank you in advance for any help!

I haven't had any problem with this. The "0" folders are created on the internal memory, not the external when I switched to aosp. If you use a file explorer, can you at least open the files on the ext card?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csmasn:
If your sdcard is formatted in exfat you won't be able to use it with AOSP roms.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dankchild:
I love the IR blaster feature, but sadly could only get a measly 5-6 feet of range with it. I deliberated over a solution, and finally I found one! Now I can get 30 feet. It will probably get more range, but that's as far away from the TV I could get!

I am currently using an OtterBox Defender case but it should work for any other case.

I used "Sally Hansen No Chip Acrylic Top Coat" on the inside of the slot where the IR blaster is. Clarification: I did not apply any to the device itself and would not recommend it. I only applied to the interior of the cone shaped cut out on the OtterBox. It made it much more reflective, but it is hardly noticeable because It is inside the hole. I put 2-3 coats on and let it dry and then put it all back together. It took 10 minutes at most. I was very careful to not get any on any other part of the case.

Check out the picture below. Let me know if it works for anybody else, it certainly did for me.:good::good::good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dankchild:
I just got it to work from outside, through my glass door. Never could have done that before. Haha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] britoskates:
This is super interesting! So you just put some right on the ir blaster? I'm on the otter box to but the smaller one I forgot the name lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dankchild:
Not on the IR blaster itself. I did not put any on the device itself for that matter, I am unsure what would happen if you did that! I only put it on the interior of the cone shaped hole on the OtterBox case. I think you might have the Commuter Series.

I edited my original to clear that up, sorry for the confusion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Slade8525:
mine works fine (nude device) for 30 feet indoors and around 20 in bright light (ir washout). you could drill the ir blaster hole in your case wider as well. ir is wide spectrum, so it diffuses easily and readily, anything that would cut down or narrow the field is bad (ie case that insets the IR blaster too far) and sounds like what you did is built a small lens out of acrylic on the inside of the case, which would work fine. a dome shape on the outside would work best.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] britoskates:
Yes the commuter case lol I'm deff going to try this out thanks for this easy little hack.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dankchild:
I never was able to get any range over 6-7 feet from the nude device. I almost dismissed it as a gimmick. That's so strange.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sharpehenry:
Mine works well. I could control any TVs in line of sight in the restaurant. I could say they were well ovet 20 ft away from me.

Just in case, I peeled all the bumper stickers(side plastic clear films) around my phone. Maybe one of those clear film is covering on top of IR eye?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] klamse:
Thanks for the handy tip!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Slade8525:
check one out in a store (best buy is where i would try it) and try against yours; if range doesnt match warranty it. GF's didnt go over 15 feet and her new red one does 30 feet almost the exact same as mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] imitenotbecrazy:
Yeah mine easily reaches across the bar to change the channel haha no case here

sent from just the tip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] StolenVW:
Mine reaches across the bar also with the otter box defender case on
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] burhanistan:
That seems like it's defective. Mine works fine from 20+ feet, although it won't spread as well as a "real" remote control would so you have to be sure that it's pointed directly at the IR sensor on the device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Mezabaru:
Sorry for an age old bump, but I bought a defender case just to try this out :D! I'll post results once I get a chance to test it :).

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] bluebotle:
I had this problem and it was because the SD card was formated to the Fat32 file system, I changed mine to FAT16 16bit and it worked ok after.

[Galaxy Camera Themes and Apps] MaHoff:
I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2340993

And i gave it a try on my Samsung Galaxy Camera with really good results:

I did install this manually on my Samsung Galaxy Camera (rooted Stock 4.1.2) by placing the so's and apk in /system/lib and /system/app folders and setting permissions accordingly and it works almost perfectly:

- taking photospheres result in much better pictures than the JB 4.2 cam (less stitching errors)

- no crashes after stitching if GPS is ON! (sadly 4.2 cam always FCd on stitching GPS Photospheres)

- Also taking topmost and bottommost picture improves the overall quality a lot!

Definitive worth a try if you're into Photospheres!

But on the donwside. the whole Gallery app freezes for me as soon as i view a photosphere and tap either the pencil (i guess editing photo comments or something) OR tap on the TinyPlanet button. After this the whole camera app is slow and extremely sluggy and unusable. Rebooting cures it.

At least the tinyPlanet was working with JB 4.2 here from the forum.

Just to clarify: This is just my experience - i did not create the package or something. I'm just a user! All thanks belong to victorator for giving us this package!
[Galaxy Camera Themes and Apps] thedicemaster:
I haven't seen any serious problems yet, and I installed it as a regular app.

it does seem to have a few odd issues.

the camera is limited to 8MP, and the scene mode names are shuffled(no scene says night mode, party mode says sunset, etc.)
[Galaxy Camera Themes and Apps] MaHoff:
Yep, i can confirm this - removed the manually installed apps and libs and installed as normal app - works really nice.

Have the sam quirks you mention.

Thanks for your help!

[MENTION=5323584]MaHoff[/MENTION] you beat me to it ;)

But for those wanting to install it with just the apk I have uploaded it here http://db.tt/L8DIRiHY

The file was originally available from the thread mentioned in the OP, but has since disappeared.

I have installed the APK on my camera, Note 2 and Note 10.1, all work with it fine, it will add another camera and gallery app to your app draw.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
My phone started acting up about 2 weeks ago. It would not charge all the time and my PC had a hard time staying connected to it. I ordered a new USB port from eBay and installed it. I am getting a weaker than normal signal, but what is really weird is that when I remove the sim card, I still have 1 bar and sometimes 2 bars of signal.:eek: I have tried rebooting and pulling the battery. Is there a way to reset my signal meter or something? Maybe I could reflash my ROM? I don't know, does anyone have any suggestions?

Oh and this is the second USB port that I have received from an eBay seller. I sent the first one back for this reason but the new one is acting the same way.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shhbz:
Chk settings/more settings/mobile network/network mode -gsm only see if there is any diffrence now

Be sure while fixing the usb that the network wire attached to it fine as that may be the culprit
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
Thanks for the suggestions but nothing helped. I'm in my house now where I should get hspa+ and I only get edge. I guess I might have to try another source for the USB port.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shhbz:
Well as u already replaced the usb again it must not be faulty as I had problem wth the usb 2 and when the servc guy changed it in frnt of me and after fixing it back I got no network as the wire connected to it which is on the right hand corner went kaput as a little force applied by the servc guy resulted in no netwrk and it was fixed replacing the signal reception wire .I hope u get which wire I m talking abt its the thin wire to right of the pcb board dat is attached to the usb port by just pressing it to the usb port on the lower right.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyall29:
Yeah I know the wire your talking about. I can plug my original USB port back in and it gets a good signal but as soon as I plug the new board in the signal goes to crap again. If I can't get it to work I may just use it as a small tablet and use my nexus 4 as my main phone. Thanks for the help.

Yep, I just put my old USB port back in and got H+ right away. I re-installed the new one, and now I get no service.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankieGom:
A few pieces of information:

- USB has nothing, repeat _nothing_, to do with radio reception levels and adding a "USB port" (I assume that means a additional USB adaptor for your laptop) is not going to change that.

- If your cell phone does not charge properly, or not at all, the very first, and cheapest, thing to check is your USB cable (I had that happen to my daughter and her Blackberry), so try another cable. A short one preferably as I have a fairly long (1.9m or 6'3) one on my desk that is next to useless

- the second thing to check is to plug other USB devices (USB stick, camera, other phone, hard drive, camcorder, whatever...) in that suspected faulty USB port to see if they behave properly or not. If they do, then the port is most probably not at fault.

- If the phone is set to only use GSM, or you have selected manually a GSM cell to attach to, the phone will stay there and monitor the GSM network. You could have 5 bars H+ signal in the home and not know about it (at least all the phones I've used over the years behaved that way).

- You're supposed to be able to make emergency calls with a bare phone, so I would hope you still get reception when the SIM is out.

Finally, and seeing your other posts where you signal that changing "USB ports" changes the radio behaviour of your phone (which I have a very hard time believing), I have to assume there is a communication problem there...

Could you describe a little better, maybe with pictures, what it is you are really trying to achieve, please? Does the phone work fine when _not_ attached to a "USB port"? What do _you_ call a USB port and why do you need the phone to work while attached to it?

If indeed plugging the phone in some USB ports impacts its radio behaviour, then I would assume the phone is FUBAR and should be returned and replaced...

HTH,

François

Well in this case as mentined above that the usb has nthing to do wth the signal but the wire that is connected to the usb has so try to get org samsung note2 usb port as I even found that few usb slot that I being sold in ebay are not exact the same as original so try to get an authentic usb port as definately the wire which is attached to your new usb port is hvng prob catching signal so it seems that the port is nt wrking fine try to get one from a geniune seller from ebay whose feedback is positive related to the usb he is selling and 1 more thing do u have an international version I.e. n7100 or n7105 or other specific carrier be sure on what you are being rather bfr purchasing confirm with the seller the exact model code written on the usb port.

We are talking about this, http://www.witrigs.com/replacement-parts-charging-port-usb-flex-cable-for-samsung-galaxy-note-2

I have a video that I recorded this morning that I I am uploading to YouTube. I will post a link as soon as it is done uploading so that you can see how the antenna plugs in to the USB port and that it does make a difference in my signal and data connection.

There was no need for all the sh*t talk in your first post. If you don't know what you are talking about then you shouldn't make posts before researching the topic.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankieGom:
Back off, man!

Nowhere does it say in the OP you are trying to replace the USB port INSIDE the freaking phone, and I made it abundantly clear that I wasn't sure what you were talking about and assumed laptop USB port. I even guessed I was misunderstanding you and asked for the picture to clarify.

Based on that, I tried to offer advice based on my own experiences with cellular phones both at home and the office. And to bash me like that when it's obvious I'm not a native english speaker is a bit disingenious.

Anyway, however you want to write it, the antenna doesn't plug into the USB port, as you say. Again. The part you bought may accomodate for the connection of both the motherboard and the antennas, it does not mean antenna and USB are interconnected. They are not. The only thing I'll concede is that the amplifier may derive power directly from the power lead in the connector (and why it would do that when it gets it from the battery already?)

that's it for me, feel free to ignore me in the future I won't miss it.
