[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahanddeem:
T-Mobile radios would give you the ability to connect to T-Mobile 3G using AWS bands 1700/2100 Mhz Band4...And no LTE (or 4G) of course since the Hercules and Blaze (or the note one from TM) devices have no LTE radio chip...

If you live in an area in which T-Mobile deployed their new LTE(and most likely they already refarmed the PCS 1900 band), use UCMC1 or the UXMA7 radio,whichever you find better...Setting the apn to fast.t-mobile.com is essential for sure to get the service...

If you live in an area that T-Mobile is still at their 3G service (AWS bands for HSPA+) use the newest blaze JB radio...

Edit : when you say faster data speeds UX vs UC , any speed vs speed measurement you can share ? probably I didn't give each radio enough testing and jumped to conclude that they have same data speeds !

[LG Optimus G Pro] andygold:
Rooted it today. First android phone I've ever owned (though been jailbreaking since 2009).

I installed Ttanium Backup, and i think i backed up my apps and data, but not exactly sure where to, as i don't have an SD card in it yet. If I backed up to the phone, I'm guessing that's mostly useless. But I'm new to this stuff so i don't really know.

So, now that i have root access, what apps should i be installing?

What stuff should i be uninstalling or freezing?

What cool things can i now do that i couldn't do yesterday?

Anything specific to the OGP that i should or should not do?
[LG Optimus G Pro] lessthanzach:
You can block ads, search adaway here on xda since Google recently rid the store of all ad blocking apps. You can use programs like sqlite editor to enable hotspot even if you're not subscribed to a plan that supports it. You can use xposed framework also here on xda (under our phones themes and apps) to apply themes to the phone. You can disable built in apps using titanium backup. Also, you should install Cwm under android development for our phone and make a nandroid backup in case you ever screw up your phone.

Best of all, you can install greenify root to make your battery last a lot longer. It hibernates apps for you that would normally run in the background.

When we have our bootloader unlocked is when the real fun will start though.
[LG Optimus G Pro] andygold:
Thank you!

Couple more questions...I was able to do a search for adaway, and found it, but you mention (under our phones themes and apps), and could not find that. Is there a section that just has XDA Apps in it? All I was able to find was forums, and not repositories (don't know if that's the right word).

Basic newbie question...if an app is listed as being for Jellybean 4.1, can we use it even it was made for a Galaxy S3 for example? If it's Jellybean 4.1 is it good to go?

As to adaway...if you disable ads, will some programs refuse to run?

Is the hotspot app, safe for my phone bill? ;)

If you "disable" apps using titanium backup, does it remove them from the phone, or just hide them? What is freezing an app? And if later you want to have them back (let's say for a trip to the cell store) are they readily returned to view?

I was under the impression (probably wrongly) that CWM at this point could brick our phone. Am I mistaken? And where does the nandroid backup get stored? Hopefully not on the phone...

I ask a lot of the above questions as being a new android user (2-weeks now), I'm clicking or checking out everything I see on the phone (and in the store(s) to learn about what it can do. I'm also installing a ton of apps that are new to me, and I've also gone to some non-Google Play stores to DL some stuff. I know that sooner or later I'm going to want to restore the phone to factory stock to get rid of conflicts, viruses (virii?), and anything that does not play well with other stuff. So, during this learning quest, I assume I'm going to frag the phone in some way, and will have the need to return it to stock (hopefully without needing to go back to the store)!!! I just want to have a bit of assurance that with everything I do, I can get back to stock.

Lastly, is there anything somewhat similar to iTunes that will make a restore a bit less time consuming. Is Titanium Backup what I"m searchnig for?
[LG Optimus G Pro] ReggieSmith:
Wasn't aware of greenify root.. will give that one a go right now!
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ryukou:
Thanks for mention greenify root, I install it. It's a hit!! :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] andygold:
Now that I'm rooted (and installed some associated apps) I've noticed some laggy operation. When I'm on pretty much any of the home screens, and click on the app drawer icon, I'm brought to the page where I see "Apps", "Downloads", and "Widgets" at the top, but occasionally I have a blank screen below that. It stays blank for anywhere from one to three seconds and then the apps and folders appear. Sometimes they will show up instantly, but quite often there is a few second lag. The only things I've installed since rooting are Root Checker, Titanium Backup and Greenify. I'm not sure whether it is the root or the new apps, so I guess I can uninstall the three apps and see.

I also seem to be getting the circling "please wait" message more often than in the past.

Anybody else experiencing this? And does this sound like a root issue or an issue from one of the three apps?

Very sad to hear that so many days has been passed but no development regarding this handset.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
I've flashed a few roms on my old phone - a moto droid x, and so far have not had any problems, and am currently toying with putting Liquid Smooth on my VZW GS3. I've read a lot of posts, old and new, and I could use some advice. Is there still a need to backup the imeid (?) before flashing a new rom? I am currently running the latest vzw firmware, am rooted and unlocked bootloader. Is this just a matter of flashing from CWM after wiping data/cache/dalvik? Ultimately, I'm fine with my phone the way it is, it works, but I'm a bit bored with it, and would love to be able to play with 4.2.2 instead of being stuck at 4.1.2 until vzw decides to update. At the same time though, I want to make sure to take any and all precautions so as to not hard brick it as I paid nearly full price for it so I could keep my unlimited. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
backing up imei is just a precaution you can do it or not thats really your choice. I would.

make sure you nandroid

clear data

clear cache

clear dalvik

flash rom

flash gapps

steps i run when flasing AOSP.

good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddog511:
Thanks for the reply. Have you by chance used this rom? I'm looking for good battery life - prior to vzw's recent 2 updates, I was getting nearly 2 days on a full charge, but now am lucky to get 15 hours. If I do a nandroid, is there a need to backup the imei, or is that also backed up with the nandroid?

Thanks again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
i got better battery on touchwiz roms.

beans rom is themed like AOSP and was great. a few otehrs have this theme but i have never tried them.

i liked the options in AOSP roms better so ive stuck with it.

i regularly get 4hrs screen on time. i got 7hrs screen on time with beans build once.

i also use ktoonz kernel everytime wth every rom.

i stick with AOSP for the customization and other options though. just personal preference. best bet is to try a bunch of roms and see what you need out of a rom with options.

i dont know if imei is backed up in nandroids. ive read that synergy rom backs up your imei when flashing but i dont know for sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Imei is not backed up in a nandroid.

You should definitely back it up. This phone has a potential to completely drop your imei on a custom rom even without flashing or modding anything, especially AOSP roms. It's very simple to do and saves you a huge headache if you do lose it.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] NeuVoice:
We were suspecting an error in the installation but everything works fine.

About the difference with Voice Command, the main point is that our product is multilingual. It requieres to train every voice command once and then it will works whatever the language you have (or accent).

It might have at the end less functionnalties than voice command but at least it has really good performances even in noisy environment. Ideal for hand free in the car.

[LG Optimus G (International)] darkdhanil:
I have an Optimus G E977 and everywhere says is the same as the E975 so the roms will work. So i root it using motochopper and i unlocked the bootloader with Freegee. First this i notice is that in the bootloader menu it says "mako" and i used to have the nexus 4 and mako is the nexus 4 model not my E977 so why does it says that?

Second, after i install everything i texted a few custom roms and i notice that with the stock rom in AnTuTu Benchmark and Quadrant Standard Edition i get higher scores than using the custom roms. For example in Quadrant Standard Edition with stock rom i get 7862 but after i install any custom rom i get about 4500+ and rarely 5000. So is that normal? Because with the nexus the custom roms gave me better performance scores than stock. It is because is actually made for the E975 and not the E977?

Finally, is there any custom rom actually made for the E977?
[LG Optimus G (International)] goodmamba:
Yes, there are more than 10 custom ROMs for our OG.

Take a look here and try some of them. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2320817

Also, "Performance lost" is a big name for your problem. Benchmarks are not a reflection of the overall phone performance, benchmarks are just numbers. Day by day personal use will tell you if the "performance is lost" or gained.

Forget the benchmarks, our phones are way too powerful for performance issues :)

Hint, try to look in the signatures of different users to get some ideas.:silly:

Hey everyone::fingers-crossed:

SOME PLAYER REVIEWS

- "I love bubble shooting games, and this is sweet :)" - Colin Becks - Jan 2, 2012

- "Cute cute cute. Its a good challenge as well, a little different from the classic bubble games i played, good twist i think - Chinese coffee guy - Feb 2, 2012

HOW TO PLAY

So easy to play this game, you know the rules. Just move your bubble gun by swiping on the screen and let go to fire. Match 3 or more of the same bubbles to release the fruit and get points. To complete a level you must release all the acorns from the trees above.

Use your power ups to get further and give yourself an advantage. Each level costs 3 energy points. When you complete a level you get more energy points. Energy also increase automatically every 20 minutes so come back and play later if you don't have enough, or you can buy packs of energy with cash.

This bubble shooting game is for all ages:) Hoping that you'll have fun in this game:)

About a month ago i was running a bench marking program, antutu and my phone got really hot. Ever since then my battery gets really hot when ever i do anything remotely intensive, like playing any games or recording videos.

It gets pretty warm just surfing the web.

My battery life now is great if i dont do anything with my phone but make calls, but if i play a game or anything intensive the phone gets pretty hot and the battery life awful.

Now i can deplete my battery if i play a game for 45 min..
