[AT&T LG Optimus G] zymphad:
Does it matter which to install and a difference?

- I see different roms based on CM recommending BaNkS and others signed.

- Same for AOKP based.

So why would one developer recommend BaNkS and another recommend signed even though both roms may be ports of either CM or AOKP?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] OMGMatrix:
Banks GAPPS packages seem to work better.

I don't know the details exactly, but I seem to recall that the Signed packages interfere with updating the apps that they include.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tykate:
The main reason why I prefer BaNkS is because it is a lot smaller ("Base" is about 15 MB, and addons are available, such as Photo Sphere and Face Unlock). I think the official has a lot of extra apps that can just be downloaded from Google Play for free.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] valunthar:
I recently upgraded to CM 10.1 from stock after updating the bootloader/modem using the guides found here. Things have been fairly smooth other than the fact that 90% of my apps are unable to use SSL or otherwise report the occasional connectivity error that goes away after retrying a few times.

Some examples of errors in apps include:

Youtube: There was a problem with the network - Retry

Firefox: An error occurred during a connection. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length

Stock Browser: Couldn't establish a secure connection

Oddly the errors seem to be hit or miss/self resolving as two apps that did report errors before are now working fine after some quick testing (Steam and F-Droid) today. Other apps that use SSL by default also don't seem to be affected (RedReader, Amazon market)

So far I've tried updating the CM version to the latest stable one and downgrading my modem firmware to stock after seeing that later revisions of the modem didn't resolve the issue. The errors seem to only occur when I'm actually on the cell network, wireless and a few proxies that I tried out (Orbot) aren't affected by the glitch.

I'm pretty well stumped here, any ideas?

I have been all over Google and can't find what I need. I am running 2.3.5 / 4.67 stock deodexed. Mostly because of no linkify. Have found some tutorials that have helped with adding mods like init.d and such but need something else.

I want to change my backgrounds in sms,email and notifications and such. I have read where I have to edit htcresourse.apk or framework-res.apk and where only need to mod services.jar. Where can I find a tutorial for this. I know about uot but I would like to learn for myself just need pointed in the right direction.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ateld:
Hi,

I'm running on MC2 and whenever I update to any 4.2.2 rom (tried at least 3 of them) I lose service.

When updated to 4.2.2, going into "about" shows IMEI and all the phone settings as UNKNOWN.

When I flash back to MC2 then my service works.

I've tried doing NVBACKUP in MC2 where my service works, and then doing NVRESTORE in 4.2.2, but that doesn't work either.

Please help, as I would love to be on 4.2.2 and I can't find a fix for this anywhere.

Thanks

Edit: Fixed, scroll down for the answer

Hey Guys,

you might run into this problem if you flash ROMs meant for different carriers' Note IIs

[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
Just wanted to bring this to your awareness, Verizon's started to broadcast their AWS or Band 4 LTE network for testing purposes. If your Nexus 4 has old radio, put it in LTE Only mode, and manually search for networks.

If it shows up as 311480, please report here.

So far San Diego is live, although the user used another T-Mobile Band 4 capable LTE device to scan.
[Nexus 4 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Cool but useless. There's no CDMA fall back for calling and text. So you'd have internet access and that's it. Stupid Verizon and their CDMA crap.
[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
If Verizon's 2x20Mhz internet access capable of 100+Mbps is useless to you then be it...
[Nexus 4 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
But what's the point. I suppose you could use all the workarounds to do VoIP but normal calling and texting is a no go since there's no CDMA fall back. My point is Verizon is only half in. Not to mention that Verizon has very little band 4 holdings at all. but hey like I said it's cool that it works.
[Nexus 4 General] lokoz89:
This actually came up when I was searching through LTE in Chicago. I didn't know what that number was or meant
[Nexus 4 General] BrianDigital:
Cool story and sounds great but a single line with a gig of data is hundred bucks sign me up
[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
Verizon has nearly nationwide Band 4 spectrum holdings. Completely unused, just sitting there.

Way more than AT&T for example who's divested most of their licenses to T-Mobile as a breakup fee.

And also way more free, unused AWS (Band 4) than T-Mobile which has to keep and maintain 20Mhz chunks for their existing HSPA+42 network for at least 1-2years.

That said, east of Mississippi Verizon is deploying 2x20Mhz LTE that can push 150Mbps on Cat 4 equipment. Just saying...

West of Mississippi they're mostly 2x15Mbps capable of over 100Mbps, with some markets with 2x10Mhz.

To put that in the perspective for you, their current nationwide Band 13 LTE is 2x10Mhz which is currently twice the capacity of T-Mobile's live LTE in most of their markets (2x5Mhz).

The point is, you can have your existing device besides being a smartphone also acting as a Verizon MiFi, if you ever wish to get access to Verizon's new stupid fast network with no one on it...

I have a verizon gs4 as my dd. my nexus 4 is shipping, should be here friday. will test it when it gets here :laugh: :good:
[Nexus 4 General] Smallsmx3:

[Nexus 4 General] AshtonTS:

[Nexus 4 General] rockingrubberducky:
hey, it's better than nothing. And testing things like that are fun, don't you think?
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
It's been widely reported that once they were done with their nationwide rollout of LTE later this year that they would then start using their band 4 aws holdings to fill in the holes and to augment their existing LTE service during peak loads.

[Nexus 4 General] Johmama:
This is really awesome for people like me that only have Verizon's LTE in my area. If this could actually work, I'd switch to it, at least for a month; just to mess around with, and to blow people's minds when I tell them I have a GSM phone on Verizon's network (I know, not that impressive to the average XDA user, but to the ignorant masses, doing something like that is crazy).

The voice is no issue for me as I've used a tablet plan the past 2 months with a VoIP alternative.
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
The only problem is that Verizon only has pay-as-you-go 3G plans, you'd have to sign up for a regular LTE plan with a 2 year agreement and they are expensive. This might be an option for someone who's already a Verizon customer to try but not practical for most people.
[Nexus 4 General] Johmama:
Oh, well that's unfortunate. I guess I didn't even think about that. I suppose AT&T just enabled 4G on their prepaid network like last month. Dang it!

Oh well, I'm still gunna search for 4G in my area (flashing an old radio right now). If I find it, I'll see if my friend will let me try to pop his SIM into my phone and see if it could work in theory.
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
AT&T always had the HSPA+ 4G on pre-paid and just added LTE. You still have to have an LTE plan and live in an area with AWS, Chicago will be mostly AWS as AT&T didn't have a lot of 700 MHz licenses in that area but that's one of the few places that you will find it.
[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
You can still scan for Verizon's LTE on your Nexus even if you don't have their SIM. At least you'll know if your area has that option available. They're still in the very early stage of deployment, San Diego report is literally the very first report of Verizon's Band 4 network broadcasting.

They won't be deploying on Band 4 nationwide from the get go, it's gonna be metro areas with heavy traffic first, then building inside-out.

It will be data only since Nexus 4 doesn't have CDMA radios, but as I said earlier, it's beneficial to have this option if you ever need another carrier for data hotspot.

Oh, and if you have Verizon's LTE iPad for instance, that's a prepaid service, you can totally use that SIM on any other LTE capable device.
[Nexus 4 General] Johmama:
Welp, I don't have any Band IV in my area so that came a quick halt.

Yeah, I meant LTE when I said 4G, since HSPA+ isn't really 4G (actually, LTE doesn't even meet the 4G standard as set by the 3GPP, but that's a whole other discussion)

Do they offer LTE on any prepaid tablet plan? I keep trying to look around and can't find a definite yes or no; usually if they don't stick '4G LTE!!!!!!' at least 100 places on the page, they don't offer it. I can't find anything.
[Nexus 4 General] IRX120:
Yeah for the iPad 4 they offer month to month plans (I think, but it might only be hsdpa) and I believe they are LTE, but its like 30$ for 4gb shared

If you're buying an iPad at the Apple Store, you don't have to sign up for a contract. Pick a plan in iPad Cellular Settings itself.
[Nexus 4 General] biggiestuff:
I wonder if they have band 4 in Houston. I already have a Verizon Sim from my galaxy nexus days with unlimited data. Only problem I don't want to cut my Sim card. Right now the Sim is sitting in a Verizon hotspot.
[Nexus 4 General] aohus:
how do you search for LTE bands. is that a specific app you can get to find out ?
[Nexus 4 General] hp420:

[Android Themes] TheWeasl:
Is there a chance that you do some icons for the navbar (back, recents, home, menu, lock), so I can change the standard ones to them matching your icon pack?!?

If that´s not to much work in squared and rounded. And a whole monochrome iconpack would be the bomb.

If that´s to much work or you ain´t got the time just forget it :D
[Android Themes] gimpy1:
In post 227 you linked to a temp link in drop box. That link just shows a picture of the icons. It is not meant as a way to download the icons for use, is that correct?
