Well what were you expecting when you wiped the system?

Do you still have the zip of cm on the phone? If you do just flash it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashishv:
U need to flash factory images via fastboot.Search the forum to know how to do it.Btw if u have a rom zip in sdcard,try flashing it if u can access recovery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STILLKICKIN:
I can't do ****. I can't even get to recovery menu. Only Google-screen. No zip on phone also. Nexus 4 Toolkit sees the phone, but says its offline...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
1. Uninstall the toolkit

2. Boot the phone into the bootloader (volume down + power)

3. Read this guide and flash the stock images.

i want to order Anker batteries 2200 on amazon ... is that batteries must be charged by the external charger or can be charged as the normal batteries inside the mobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Superman0069:
It can be charged inside your phone or with the external charger.....(Captain Planet voice) "THE POWER IS YOURS!!!!"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] idbl_fanatic:
Yes, however don;t expect a car charger to keep up with it, at least mine won't
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] x714x:
You need a good car charger then. I spent like $45 on mine, has a "high output"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JohnHorus:
They can be charged either way, though they will charge fastest when you plug the charger into the wall and put the battery directly into it. This is probably also best for the battery life in the long run.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Psiryu:
Any updates about the quality of the battery? I just ordered one off amazon myself, hahaha. My current battery lasts 4 hours if I'm lucky on any rom, so I figured it was time for a new one.

Good call! :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] coltonbauman:
I sure hope it's good, I bought a set on amazon and I'm going to start using it tomorrow. I've noticed a drop in my oem battery life, so thought I'd give these a try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ed20932:
I have those batteries and ordered them thru amazon..They work great!! but you get better charging with the charger that comes with it that connect to the wall socket. after you see the blue light..leave it for 15 more mins..as it get better charge!! They're just about the same as the stock batts..No NFC also.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] coltonbauman:
I like these batteries so far. I've been charging just through plugging my phone in, and I've seen no issues. The charget hey come with is handy too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Orion78:
Does the 2200 battery fit with the stock cover plate?.. I have the S3 and my wife has the S2 so I dont much about the S2 phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] greenmeanies:
I have these batteries and yes, they fit the stock backplate. I give them 4/5 for stock replacement just because no NFC. Actual charge capacity is great for the stock size.

Had anybody encountered a flashable zip of a touchwiz launcher for use on 4.2.2 aosp? I've searched everywhere and it doesn't look like it's been made yet. Anybody have a link?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
That's because it doesn't exist.

And why would you want it? There are not super special features of the touchwiz launcher. It's a pretty bare bones launcher. All teh features of the stock phone are built into the rom, not the launcher.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
Because I like it. Same reason you want to use whatever launcher you use. I like the weather widget too, don't like any other ones as they just look like cheap imitations. I had one on the s3 but I guess nobody's made one for the s4 yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
The widget adds ons aren't part of launcher. And those are even less likely to be ported.

What Im saying about other launchers is that TW is kind of basic so you could take a nova or apex and customize it to look just like a TW launcher.

But the widgets arent going to be available outside of touchwiz.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
Yes it is possible, because I had the S4 launcher AND weather widget on my S3 running liquid smooth. It's just a matter of time before somebody makes one. I personally don't like any other launcher because they don't have that subtle smoothness that the TW launcher has no matter what you customize on them.

Also, nova and other launchers don't have the same transitions as TW.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mgbotoe:
I believe the ones you had working on gs3 should work on any 4.2.2 because it was universal no? did you try it? one of my friends have a compilation of ported apps and the one on there was made before gs3 was out. will check when i et back home. It should be in my sig though I think
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
You know...I hadn't really thought of that! (silly me). I'll try them out now and post a link to them somewhere if it works!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marcoxx626:
Didn't work :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mgbotoe:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StNickZA:
As a serial ROM flasher, the most important app in my life is Titanium Backup. However I don't like to use it to restore all my system apps and settings after a wipe because of the possibility of restoring junk I don't want.

The problem is, there ARE some settings that I always want to restore such as my ringtone and notifications, my custom LED colours, developer settings etc. What's the best way to backup and restore these individual settings? I'm assuming that it's possible with a script. Any suggestions or links you can recommend?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jherbold:
Can't address all your needs, but an app called "ringtone keeper" makes backing ringtone information and restoring ringtones, including individual contact ringtones a snap.

[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
Hi, i have two questions:

1. Is it possible to use another partition other than data to keep dalvik in sense roms?

2. Why data is more free in viperS conparing to Revelation? Is it so or do I just feel so?

Thanks in adcance.

The Revelation™ ushered in a revolution... Right on, SebastianFM!
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
1) Not that I know, never really went into the subject. You can google that.

2) It's probably just you. most ROMs encourage wiping data before flashing, and the ROM is madde of system apps (in the system partition) and kernel (boot partition). They can put things in data, but it will easily be removed as there is no need for root access to remove stuff from there, and It's prone to deletion. Could it be that you didn't format /data before flashing revelation?
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
It wouldn't have booted, if the former rom was different... ;)

The Revelation™ ushered in a revolution... Right on, SebastianFM!
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
And for the different thingy I said most. What I mean is on most occasions. Just a mistake of long time without sleep.

And to the matter at hand - I seriously doubt a ROM will have stuff in data, as sometimes people wipe data when using the phone, so it can't be stuff that is needed for the experience of the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guardianali:
Below is the situation i'm in. Please dont reply with a generic "flash xyz in Odin" post as ive tried if you read.

I got a used Note 2. It has a clean ESN. Works fine. I wanted too root/unlock it to load a custom recovery and then a custom ROM.

It has VRALI3 as both baseband and Build.

I tried to use multiple version of Casual with no luck. I then tried to use different odin files with no luck..i keep getting an error and fails during the nand flash portion. At one point I soft bricked it (only boot logo..no recovery...no boot).

Only way i restored it was via sch-i605-16gb.pit in the pit area, I605VRLI3- verizon.tar for PDA and uncheck re-partition.

So back to where I was.

I tried to then use the pit file with CI605_I605VRLJB_I605VRALJB_CL414933_HWID04_HW_Rev0406_low_ship_user.tar

No luck..fails with nand flash write error.

Tried instructions at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34891181

No luck.

Then I tried to load root66_VZW_stock_system.tar and it worked. It only has a system.img file in it.

With this..I have a baseband of VRALI3 but with a build of VRALJB with ROOT.

So I was supper happy and then tried to repeat everything above with no luck still..nand flash error.

I tried goo manager since i had root and loaded custom recovery..got the yellow triangle.

Back to pit + vrali3..then pit + root66 back to root.

And thats where i sit.

I think VRALI3 was a prelease build???? But i dont know what i need to do to get out of it and unlock the bootloader. I have no idea what version bootloader was/is loaded already....

What can I do??

Thank you for reading...and any help would be appretiated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
Vrali3 is the pre release which has a different bootloader than the other 3 versions. As far as I know, you are up a creak without a paddle. There is no way to unlock bootloader and root, or change to a different version when you are on that. Probably why the person was selling it. I'm guessing the person was selling it for cheaper than other ones and that's why you bought it. That pre release is known to be attached to that damn toolkit that people think is awesome. Sell it and buy a different one.

Just got this S3 l747, for AT&T. I use T-Mobile. I have unlocked it and my SIM is working and all, but just wondering if there is a T-Mobile "Stock" ROM for it, so I get the T-Mobile "feel"? If not then a de-bloated stock ROM? I just really hate seeing all the AT&T apps and things when I don't use AT&T, But I actually like the stock touchwiz feel.

[Android Themes] SaadUsmani:
This is just a share to make your device look like google play edition

Since the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One Google Play Edition devices are launched you might also want to look alike it.So in this guide we will tell you how to do it without rooting so lets get Started

1. Change your Launcher

There are lots of cool launcher are available but nova launcher is the best choice over any launcher Grab it from here Play Store Download Link. Simply using the default settings of Nova immediately makes your phone look a like stock.

2. Customize your Icons:

Now we will change the icons Holo Icons is filled with stock icons, and looks great with Nova Play Store Download Link

3. Change your lock screen.

There are also many lockscreen available but the best to look like the stock is Holo lockscreen grab it from here Play Store Download Link

4. Install Google apps.

Stock Android devices come with only Google created apps Get all the stock apps from this link.

there are some stock apps that are on stock devices, but that Google hasn’t released it yet on platstore nd you are not going to find all of them, but some, like the Camera app, complete with the Photo Sphere feature Download Link and the Dialer Download Link have been leaked for you to enjoy.

5. Make all of these apps default, and disable bloatware.

While setting up these apps, some will prompt you to make it the default app, but others will not. Make sure you make all of them default, so they will open automatically whenever you want to use them. You can do that using a very useful app called Default App Manager (Download Link).

As mentioned, do some research and decide what you need to do with your phone. Do you want features not available with stock? An Engineer at Qualcomm just stated at XDA:DevCon 2013 yesterday that a custom ROM can be one of the best ways to increase battery life, however ERD Jcase stated that it opens security risks so he chooses not to root. The choice is yours. But read, read, read before you decide.
