[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] razi914:
Hey I recently got a glxy nexus, have some questions about rooting and flashing and some problems,

1.the first thing I don't understand is why my phone doesn't update to latest android? Still on 4.2.1, its a nexus ,so I think it should get update since first boot, anybody else have this problem?

2.so the device is not updating, I plan to root and flash it, so I'm doing this, 1. Unlock bootloader via fastboot ,,2. Flash twrp via fastboot , and start flashing roms! (These steps are my mind generated) so tell me , did I miss anything? Do I need to do something else, ? Really appreciate your answers,

or you can use toolkit, if you are not sure of what u are doing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
1- it will not update (or take a lot longer to) unless you're running yakju/takju.

2- perfect, you did your homework.

hey just curious , is flashing a kernel the same way as rom? i mean do we have to flash boot.img via fastboot? and what is download mode? i heard it is used to flash stock roms on samsung devices , does it do the same on a galaxy nexus ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
kernels are normally packaged into recovery flashable zips. some include all they need inside a boot.img, some don't. if all they need is boot.img, then yes, 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' would be the correct command.

download mode is indeed the interface by which normally Samsung devices interact with a computer. It's far more easier to get an updated factory image in "fastboot format" than in Odin package files, in part because, if you're running yakju or takju, Google takes care of the software, and that's why fastboot should always have higher priority than Odin.

But yes, download mode is one more option.

Ok, one more thing , that one thing which is scaring me , what is this omap44 thing going on? I read somewhere that galaxy nexus bricked after installing cm,, or while charging,, is this thing has anything to do with unlocking bootloader or flashing roms?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
don't operate the device while on low battery, put it to charge, don't let it shutdown by itself;

flash stuff for your own variant (variants: maguro, toro, toroplus) i.e. try to stick with your own variant's dev subforum, although kernels should be compatible across all variants;

give priority to fastboot, it seems you're no stranger to the tool, you have way more "freedom" with the Nexus's fastboot than with HTC's (which also uses it, I believe?);

keep platform-tools (bundled with android-sdk or in a separate package) up-to-date; current version is R17

Hello!

Ok so i have a galaxy s4 for at&t. I want to install the 4.2 google edition rom on it. First time im doing this! For some reason it keeps failing. This is what Im doing:

1. Root the phone with motochopper ( i confirmed its rooted by DLing root checker app)

2. Transfer the ROM file onto the micro sd card

3. I boot in recovery by holding volume up.

4. Wipe

5. Update from sd card and select the rom file

6. It seems to be working and restarts the phone with touchwiz!

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? Please Help.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] rohitdhavade:
I planned to buy a new Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3, but then I noticed the free RAM is around 600 MB .

Would this RAM be sufficient enough for a smooth multi-tasking experience and with many widgets. ? ?

Initially, I thought of Samsung Note-2 which has around 0.91GB of free RAM which ofcourse ifs more than enough for any kind of multi-tasking.(but its too costky :( )

Is there anyway through which I can get

more RAM on "Samsing Mega 6.3

" ?? ?? ?? .. ....

What I thought was, the device has a total RAM of 1.5GB , so if I root the device & remove various redundant applications which I dont need & replace the launcher with a light one,

then will there be a chance to get around 800-900MB of RAM ?? ?? ??
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
Like they say, unused RAM is wasted RAM. In my experience the RAM is more than enough to do multitasking. I have not yet experienced any slow down because of RAM even under heavy load and I have tried having multiwindow with popup play running on top.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
I echo that JB handles rame really well as mentioned above unused ram is pointless and android will kill apps or processes in memory as and wehn required that way you have a smoother experience throughout as apps are able to refresh quicker, yet when needed will be killed off by the oom memory managment
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] rohitdhavade:
Ohh..

Thanks For that info, I didnt knew that apps are automatically killed as & when the need arises .

Then, its a good deal to buy mega 6.3. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
indeed it is, great phone indeed
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] nick5000:
My i9205 had around 1.1G ram of 1.32G used when new (just after boot). I uninstalled several samsung applications and it decreased to 0.9G used. If I "clear ram" I get around 600mb used. It seems to help, Chrome is seldom killed now, I can have many pages open and it does not need to reload them when coming back after doing other stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] orangekid:
You also seem to have a bit of a misunderstanding with how Linux memory management works.

It is easier to pull the RAM out of cache, and cache RAM isn't reported as "free" even though it essentially is, because it can be pressed into service as soon as it's needed and is a lot faster than taking it from the hard disk.

Linux also doesn't need "free RAM" to just be there to operate, a phone with 1.2GB "Free RAM" won't run any faster than one with 400MB free unless the processor is doing something in the background extra.

If anything, the one with 400MB will seem faster because it probably has the apps you use loaded in RAM without using any CPU so as soon as you try to open, let's say Facebook, it was already cached in RAM so it just boots right up.

Long story short, if you have 600MB free RAM, you have nothing to worry about in terms of performance on the phone.

There will be times you wish you never took it, especially when learning some CSS(GODDAMN APOSTROPHE KEY Y U NO BECOME AUTOMATIC SOMETIMES) but all in all, it is very worth it. You don't have to get a job to earn some small $$$, because you can tell people, advertise online, etc.

Hi, I like to keep this secret(My tools) but if you try hard you can easily tell what I used. I'll give you some hints, I use a combo of Adobe: PS, Fireworks, Dreamweaver and sometimes I get scripts and position them accordingly. I will be honest here, NONE of my sites are completely based off notepad, and upon consulting more of my web dev colleagues, I have learned that using notepad/notepad++ is too time consuming and actually decreases productivity.

However, at the end of the day, if the client is happy regardless of what I used to make it, I am also happy.
