There is no specific ROM. There are multiple AOSP roms to choose from. Each brings its own specialties with it. Many are smooth but may not work great on your specific phone. Just try them out and choose the one you like. All of the ones that have been mentioned are great ROMs. I have also ran (and am currently running) CM 10.1.2 to give it a whirl. I have also ran Task650 AOKP which is outstanding.

I recently started running hellfire ROM and its super smooth no stutter and extremely responsive. This is my new daily driver for awhile.

Edit: Fixed the problem. Used OTG cable and flash drive to move the recovery.

Phone was working fine, but suddenly after a reboot it goes past the HTC logo, then remains black. I have a backup on my computer, but can't go into recovery and restore because I get an error when I try to mount. Factory reset doesn't work.

Same with Tab 2 works perfectly with most games. Also if you are looking for a good tablet other than the Tab 2 then look at the Nexus 7 or Nexus 10.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dimas.94:
Hello people, I really hope you can help me out on this one. I own the Sony Xperia U, which I had succesfully bootloader unlocked and rooted months ago. It had been runing ICS smoothly and everything was working great, until two days ago, when the screen started ocasionally missing/ignoring taps/sweeps. It was a real pain to type since it would miss a letter or more in every word I typed. I decided to do a factory reset, and so did I. The problem was not fixed. Now, I'm dealing with more: My computer does absolutely nothing when I connect the XU, and the phone itself only recognizes a charger. The same in debugging mode. Superuser does not work (can't get root access despite it says it has granted the rights), I can't even uninstall Superuser. What are my options? Can I somehow flash some things and do a full reset of the phone? I have CWM Recovery installed!

Thanks in advance!

PS: The main ambition is to get rid of everything but the screen problem. I'll probably replace the digitizer after that.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dimas.94:
Anyone? Sorry for second post!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
Proberly hardware problem. But you unlocked your bootloader and your pc is now as good as nothing. Just pay for the repair :-\
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] moli2398:
Well, I would recommend to flash stock again to remove root and relocking the bootloader and if the problem gets solved, root it again.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dimas.94:
Fixed it by flashing stock ftf! Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] darkmash:
Hi all did u know older Xperia are one standard of jack plug, when newer Xperia ranges are the new iPhone standard of jack plug , ones called ompt and the ctia, I believe, jvc is the only place I've found a fix for this problem, there gummy plus range comes with a adapter so older Xperia devices can use the newer standard, great now I can use my pricey beats by dre with Mic, basically the difference between the two standards is apple swapped gnd and Mic on there devices, I just like to make people aware as I bought 18 sets on mic'd headphones and only 2 have worked, now with the adaptor that comes with jvc gummy plus I can use any of then via the adaptor, great! Shame I spend about 100 bucks lol
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ShinOrochiX:
Lol, yea I know about this. Refer to this post it tells you everything.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] darkmash:
I learnt it the hardway

Yeah bummer I hadnt seen it before, but I got a adaptor and gummy plus headphones which is loads better than the Sony adaptor in price , plus thos gummyplus sound great
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] darkmash:
But now at least I got about 15 spare sets of headphones with Mic , and I can use my beats by dre set ; plus this cheap fx set that sound same as beats , and also my Xperia z and sp ones work , but the reversed adaptor is hard to find only place was pc company who are building me one , just in case I need one in the furture lol
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ShinOrochiX:
That is a waste having many headsets, I have Sony DJ Headphones, Skull Candy earphones & Sony earphones all of which work because they do not have a inbuilt microphone so there is no port problem. The stock headset from Sony Ericsson, IMO, is very good-but then again I am not the type of person who spends much money on headsets e.g. Beats by Dre.

Hi

I have CM 9 tenderloin on my HP Tp. I tried to find tutorials on how to do this but I am unable to locate any information. How can I upgrade to 10.1? How can I install 10.1 from scratch if upgrade si not possible?

I would appreciate if someone can post a useful link for me? As I mentioned I cant find good info on it, I think I just keep looking for wrong kind of information...

thanks
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theronkinator:

Thanks for your reply. Can I upgrade to 10.1 though? Will I loose all my data and ifnromation on it if I wipe out the system? If I have to wipeout CM 9 tenderloin, and do a fresh install how do I do that? Naturally I want to be able to retain as much information and app installation as possible along the process.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WMH7:
I used this page to update to 10.1 yesterday. Everything went smoothly, except for the fact that Bluetooth no longer works and the volume buttons are inversed. The July 12 nightly (cm-10.1-20130712-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip) apparently fixes the volume button problem, but you're going to have to live without Bluetooth in CM10.1.

To update, all you have to do is download two files (cm-10.1-20130712-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip and gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip) to a folder on your SD card. Once you've done this, boot ClockwordMod and select "Install ZIP from SDCard." Find the two zip files, and start by installing the gapps. Once you've done that, install the cm-10.1 zip.

I followed this process last night and was able to save all of my data, albeit there are a few issues with CM10.1 on the TP. But they'll probably fix those in future nightlies.

[Asus Transformer TF700] FooFighter312:
Hi, I'm considering trying out data2sd since I'm quite fed up with lag on my infinity so I would like some advice, or rather just some confirmations.

Does data2sd fix lag in apps like chrome, which is unusable completely for me. In fact any browser is awful on infinity except the stock and yes I'm using browser2ram on CromiX.

I even experience lag sometimes when I click on a text box. It takes several seconds for SwiftKey to open, and sometimes even the text input is laggy. This applies to all apps I have installed.

Even Gmail can be laggy while selecting emails or switching tags. Absolutely frustrating experience.

Overall, how does data2sd feel for you and what difference have you noticed using it?

Btw, I'm planning on getting a SanDisk 32gb class 10 micro sd for this, so is the process for Cromi just selecting the kernel in the installer or do I have to flash the mount data2sd file before installing the Rom?

Thanks in advance guys :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sounds like you have got some issues there. You shouldn't be having that sort of lag on CROMi-X

Have you done a clean install to see what it is like before installing swiftkey. Last time I used it it had become quite laggy but that was ages ago. I use the google JB keyboard now which is now superior to swiftkey in all respects other than maybe the prediction engine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FooFighter312:
Thanks, I'm gonna try that. I was actually planning to do a full wipe and clean install since that usually fixes things, but I'm wondering if data2sd can make my tablet with your rom even faster, especially regarding the browsers' lag
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
People say it doesn't really do much on the latest version of CROMi-X and can be more to maintain. Like I said version 4.6.9 literally flies for me and most people.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FooFighter312:
I'm gonna try it out tmr and let you know, I'm still on 4.6.6 actually, been too busy with exams lately to update. Thanks for your time :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I'm using Swiftkey on 4.6.9 with no lag at all. I bet a clean install would make all the difference.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FooFighter312:
The full wipe and clean install fixed all my problems, thanks again! And even the 4.2 launcher has no lag at all anymore, this is just amazing, like a completely new device! :sly:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Hi,

I must say I have these problems, too.

I even put my infinity on local e-bay like site to sell it as i am just frustrated and annoyed by it.

I have to admit I haven't done a clean install for some time now. I think since the first version.

So, it sounds like i will need to do a clean install once again.

But I am worried about one thing. I have done clean installs on every single ROM i have used on all my devices, and the story is always the same.

Yes, experiance is much better, but only for limited time. When i install like 50 apps and have all sorts of stuff going on - the tablet just can't cope with it. It is specially noticeable when the tablet is in sleep mode without WIFI or SYNC. When i wake it up, press wifi and sync - whooaaa, i can just leave it there for some time and forget about it. Than again, sometimes it is just normal. Until i open browser, that is.

Well, anyway, i just wanted to say, that after some time thing go bad again.

I will try clean install right now, to prove me wrong :)

Will report in a week :cool:.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Guenne:
Hi,

I am using the 1.11 Rom. Unfortunately, my mdac's audio quality suffers from a kind of distortion. You almost cannot hear it, when somebody speaks soft, but as soon as it gets a little louder it is not very pleasing to the ears.

I tried to have it repaired, but they could not find anything.

So, I had the lady at the T-Mobile shop in my town make a test call.

She immediately noticed the distorted sound. We also changed the SIM to a new one, but it did not help.

So, finally, they would swap the thing toworrow.

But, as I stated....

So, is it possible at the moment to downgrade to a German ROM (T-Mob Germany or even better T-Mob Austria?)

I also want to add that my brother owns the same device, but he still has the German Rom, only the radio update to 1.05 was made...

Thanks for your answers and help, Günter
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] PapaDocta:
well, sure you can downgrade... no problem in doing that!

it's the same steps when upgrading but instead of upgrading the new rom use the old one.....!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] pietrucci:
the only problem is that it seems almost impossible to get an original T-Mobile ROM. But if you have a brother...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Guenne:
@pietrucci:

You mean, I can make an image of my brother's mdac's rom?

And then put it back on my mdac?

Is that possible?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] pietrucci:
Yes it is! You need ntrw.exe (v 2.0) and a sd-card. With the ntrw tool you can write your brothers ROM onto your computer (if you have a sister with a MDA, you can use that one too! I mean her MDA, not your sister herself ofcourse). And with the same ntrw tool you can make a bootable sd-card with this ROM. And then put it on the other machine. Look in this forum, there are several threads. For example, look at today's thread: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=19500
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Guenne:
@pietrucci:

Thank you (concerning my sister, unfortunately I don't have one).

I decided to go with my mda til the T-Mob Update which hopefully should be out in April (they didn't say 2005.)

It got a little better with my new SIM, and the guy in the shop allowed me to use his device, same ****ty audio quality (of course, he had no Radio Update :wink: )

So again, thank you very much
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Never-E-Nuff:
Hello All,

OK so here is the deal. I have done a ton of searching and reading and as it helped a lot I still have this issue. I bought this Note about a month ago used. I never rooted it nor do anything at all with it but literally make calls or text. I plugged it in the other night before bed to charge woke up the next day to find my note completely dead. after much research i found what i Believe to have is the dreaded SDS and that many people have this issue but with the S3 and Note 2. It did start freezing and such before it died but I never upgraded firmware or anything. So after my research I plugged the phone up to my Win 7 laptop and it began installing drivers but then failed to install. did more research and found that it had the missing qhsusb_dload driver. So after more research I finally found driver and installed it and now my laptop recognizes it but Kies does not recognize it nor does odin3 v3.07. now odin3 v1.85 on the other hand does recognize it. so it tried to flash the stock Rom but nothing odin never finishes. Is their any way at all to come out of this Sudden Death Syndrome and bring my phone back to life?? Please all help on this would be a god send!!! Also just to be clear this phone does nothing I get no picture, sounds lights/led or anything. the only sign of life this phone has is that when i plug it in to my laptop it gets recognized.

I cant tell if it gets into download mode. i get no image at all on the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
With Odin open, phone off, try the holding down volume and plugging up the usb as suggested. If you get download mode, you should be able to tell if Odin shows it in the block. Then try your flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Never-E-Nuff:
yea I've tried that with odin3 v3.07 but it never got recognized but odin3 v1.85 did recognize it. it shows the block and i did everything it starts but never finishes. The very first time i did it though it did finish but with an error. after that time now it never finishes. I guess im probably down to just getting a new phone or sending this one to get JTAG'ed. but by all means if anyone else has any suggestions please feel free....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsfinsrq:
What exactly do you mean when you say Kies does not recognize yoir phone? Are you referring to the firmware version? As long as your computer recognizes the device, recognition of the firmware does not matter. Put phone in download mode, open Kies, tools, firmware recovery/upgrade and follow the prompts. Have your serial number handy because it will ask for it. When you enter the model number, use all caps (SGH-I717). 440Bro has a simple to follow guide here but they are closing the airplane door otherwise I would link it. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Never-E-Nuff:
thank you for your input. unfortunately it's not firmware that does not get recognized its the phone . in the top left hand corner of Kies it says connect device and i do have it connected it just wont recognize it. this is definitely a weird situation but i just think now that my phone is gone with no hopes. thank you again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsfinsrq:
Ignore that and run the firmware update and recovery. As long as the computer recognizes the device it should work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Be sure you are using the stock usb cable and connected to a powered port. Also charge the battery fully before you begin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
What does the PC popup or do when you connect your device? Does the device show up in "my computer" ?

Since you can't see anything on the screen I want you to try something.

1. Pull battery and write down serial number

2. On PC open Kies, click "tools - Firmware Upgrade and Initialization"

3. Type in SGH-I717 (all caps)

4. Type in serial number

5. Replace battery

6. Hold volume down and power button together for 6 seconds then release both.

7. Press volume up button

8. Plug phone into PC and proceed with kies firmware recovery.

Hopefully that might get you somewhere.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Never-E-Nuff:
I tried as you suggested but Kies will not recognize it so the Start Update tab stays greyed out. When I connect the phone to the PC I hear the PC do its sound and I see it show up in my device manager ( Not in my computer ) but in device manager of the computer and it shows up in the device manager as this " Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 (COM8) ". Now when I use Odin3 V1.85 the block highlights in yellow and says ( COM8). I do not think the phone is recognizing correctly because I stated earlier the first time I plugged this phone into my PC which was after this issue started never before while it was functional but when I plugged it up it started to install the drivers but would fail. it would say in the device manager of my PC that I had a missing driver. After looking for this mysterious driver called "qhsusb_dload driver" for hours I finally found it and installed it and then the phone installed without failing afterwords. The only sign of life my note has is when I plug it into my PC I hear the dong-dong sound that's it. With Odin3 I do not even have to do any type of volume/power combination as right when I plug it in Odin3 say's " <ID:0/008> Added!! " I then click on PDA and im prompted to choose the file. I choose file " KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 " and hit start and this is what I get

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable...

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<ID:0/008> Odin v.3 engine (ID:8)..

<ID:0/008> File analysis..

<ID:0/008> SetupConnection..

It does nothing else unless I unplug it and it then tells me

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0/ failed 1)

<ID:0/008> Removed!!!

Ive left it without removing for hours with nothing. Is this rather common if a phone has the SDS issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
I'm sorry to hear you are having all this trouble. The fact that odin recognizes it tells me there is some life left in your device. Kies not recognizing it is puzzling. You either have bad drivers, or a bricked device. I would try another PC and see if kies will recognize it, or if you can complete a flash on odin. If not I would send it to www.mobiletechvideos.com If it's bricked jtag repair is $40 bucks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] angelf82:
Try it on a different computer or laptop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Kies has a retarded amount of checks...

Use Odin. It's for us advanced users to manually flash when kies does this.

That's why Samsung releases the .tars...

They know this happens.

If Odin recognizes it, IT'S NOT BRICKED.

What do ya'll think about the Galaxy S4? I'm stuck on Verizon, so the htc One is out of question. Is the S4 one of the best phones on verizon?
[HTC Rezound] gleggie:
Yes, the GS4 is clearly the best phone on Verizon right now, but if you want to wait, there will be a lot of new phones coming out later this year.

The GS4 and HTC One are both rumored to get an incremental update from the Snapdragon 600 to the 800 chip.

Also, a Verizon-branded version of the HTC One will be coming in late Summer or early fall.

There's also the Moto X and the rumored Nexus 5 that will be coming out in the Fall, so theres a lot to look forward to.

edit: Also the Note III is rumored to come out sometime this year as well, if you're into phablets
