I agree..seems as thow, if I had this stock ROM with a gray gapps to match system colors, maybe even a transparent status bar option, I'd be tickled..I do like some of the Apps. that come with this ROM, games I'm not into, and the "Amazon" stuff, nor the NFL, Ingress I would delete, BUT..The Droid Zap, Touch less Controls, NFC and others I'd like to keep..I do enjoy this device and for the most part, like the stock ROM..

Oh..and be able to turn GPS Off and On without having to give permission ever time ( check or uncheck the box).. :)

I'm perfectly happy with stock MotoX/Droid ROMs too, particularly since they are so close to stock Android. But, I don't want to have to wait for Verizon to approve firmware updates. I got a Galaxy Nexus hoping to avoid some of the headaches associated with flashing ROMs, That didn't exactly turn out as expected (though probably how I should have expected it).
[Droid Ultra General] bigv5150:
I hear you I hate waiting because of verizon having to approve the update and holding things up. However unless this phone is different on my bionic I would always go back to stock because the kexec roms would eventually get glitchy or slow down. Having a new ota back in the day came with huge improvements GB to ICS incredible like a new phone. Even from ICS to JB were a lot of ui improvements you could see the difference much smoother. It seems the updates are now bug fixes with minor ui changes not really making it a new experience. I can hold off unless the update is substantial in upgrading this phone. Hopefully voodoo will be able to protect root on 4.3/4.4 so we can keep root.
[Droid Ultra General] reggie14:
I would happily get a Droid Maxx Developer Edition if I was relatively confident it would get some quality ROMs. I'd prefer mostly stock ROMs, but wouldn't mind a CM ROM if touchless control and Motorola Assist would work on it.

By the way, the 4.2.2 -> 4.3.1 update was huge for my Galaxy Nexus, mostly from a Bluetooth perspective. Bluetooth devices would not stay consistently connected under any of the 4.2.2 ROMs I tried. My wife had similar problems with her stock Gnexus. 4.3.1 completely solved that problem, and seemed to be a touch snappier. There were some huge improvements to the location services APIs in 4.3, but I'm not sure there's much that uses it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farrenicus:
I've read of this happening with the N2 as well...

My N900A on AT&T absolutely will not keep time. I've tried every combination of time settings (sync to network checked and unchecked, sync to timezone synced and unchecked) and my phone ends up several minutes behind every time I lock it, go to do something else and come back to it. This morning my alarm to wake up was 40 minutes late because the phone was inexplicably 40 minutes behind. I set the time manually according to my PC which runs ntpd and it STILL ends up slow. If I have it set to sync to network time, I can force it to resync by entering airplane mode and then disabling it. If that's my only work-around, I'd have to do dozens of times a day and my alarm in the morning would still be late.

Does anyone else's $750 toy have issues with this simple task that my microwave mastered years ago? I wish I could just run a proper NTP service on it and force it to sync every 60 seconds either to my router or to the pool.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CekMTL:
Well first of all that is extremely weird, and if I had that issue with my Note3 I would go insane.

For now mine doesn't have this problem and the time keeping is spot on.

Check out "ClockSync"

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.org.amip.ClockSync

But... Anyways, I think it might be better if you could exchange it for a new device... Maybe you got a lemon?

Best of luck!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farrenicus:
Thanks for the input--Clocksync looks useful but root's required for automatic sync it says, and I have the securely locked, highly incapable (for now) AT&T variant. It should still prove useful for diagnostics--wondering if this is extreme drift or if it's being reset somehow to some totally incorrect time while the phone is locked. The clock stays accurate as long as I watch it.

The only way I could see it being hardware-related is if it had a battery for maintaining time like a CMOS battery or one in a game console, and I'd be shocked if any smartphone had this. It's a serious problem but I can't imagine it being exclusive to my particular model. A bug most people haven't run in to perhaps, but something software-related nonetheless.

Edit: Someone with a Note 2 with the same problem. Then again, after staring at ClockSync for some time, the local offset isn't changing significantly which suggests drift isn't the problem at all. What is I don't know, but it appears to only happen when I'm not using the phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CekMTL:
You welcome and sorry to hear that...

Yes, for automatic mode the app needs root privilege.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farrenicus:
Just confirmed it's drift.

When active, the phone keeps time well.

I just allowed it to sleep for 10 minutes then checked ClockSync: it had drifted 29 seconds behind. Totally unacceptable but I'm just going to use an old-fashioned alarm clock under the expectation that eventually I'll be able to root it and have it sync automatically, and frequently.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dumbo53:
I agree that you should return it. Even if a hardware problem seems inconceivable, it is an obvious, unacceptable problem. And very likely the next one you get, for whatever reason will probably not do that. Or by changing phones and setting it all up again you may stumble upon the solution.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farrenicus:
Thanks. I'm starting to consider getting a replacement as crazy as losing seconds while in sleep mode being a hardware issue is. I'm still curious as to if anyone else is experiencing this. With the Note 2 it seemed to be exclusively an AT&T problem, and it apparently was never fixed.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
i have my xda2i and tt5 installed, and it runce nicely for an undetrmined amount of time then decides to close tomtom, i can reopen it and carry on but alas it keeps doing the same.

when i start tt5 i get the hands logo on the bottom bar apear but after every crash it seems to move along.

Any idears guys?

my old tt3 works flawlesly.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Danny-B-:
Firstly, make sure your using version 5.10, theres a small patch from the website that takes it from 5 to 5.10.

Second, consider it might be your SD card, slow older SD cards tend to make the device hang and/or slow down, which is a problem with the radio (mobile signal) and the SD card interface.

Cards above 80x speed generally work flawlessly.

Third try just a full re-install of the TT5 software, there might have been an error whilst installing thats causing it to crash.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
i havent tried the update and i dont know what speed my card is, its the same card i used tomtom 5 with flawlessly in my old pda (loox600).

I'll try the update and see what happens.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Lord of darkness:
Try this

Use the poi.dat from tt3.

I had a problem with the new rom where it crashed from time to time & also i couldn't nav to the poi without it crashing.

I used the poi.dat & i can now nav. it doesn't let me call the poi but it might solve your problem.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
yay! when i used the tt5 poi and navigate to, it gave me the categories but no destinations when selected then would promptly crash, i put the tt3 poi.dat in and it will now searcha and nav to without crashing. will take her out on the road tonight and if i can get to my mums and back then alls well.

was a pain cos i went to newcastle a month ago (375mile) and it just kept crashing, i had to run it in guidance mode (no map, poi) so it must be the poi then cos it didnt crash like that.

will let you know my findings then you have a definitive answer for all you out there with the same issue.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Lord of darkness:
Awesome :lol:

Happy with that if it works

What version of the rom are you running by chance?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
ok, it dont crash now but it's so much slower in refreshing the map, about half the speed it was.

has anyone got an unaltered tt5 pio.dat file they can upload for me to try, i'm wondering if its happened when i used my free trial of tt plus and added thier speed camera databases. i could reinstall the maps but i'm nowhere near the orginal disk at the moment as its at work and i'm 'ill'.

I have a tomtom mobile pio which worked for a while then crashes, and have somone sending me a few different TT Go pio.dat's. worth testing them all.

my roms listed below chap.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] chazupton:
Here is POI from TT 5.10, you said in your post that you had TT's speed camera database but I thought that you had to take out a 12 month contract.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] MaskedMarauder:
You need to uncheck all the POIs you don't want to see on the map, that is what is slowing it down.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
i activated the tt plus trial on the website for a month and grabbed all the extras, although i use pocketgpsworld.com for my speed camera databases.

I have all the poi deactivated already.

will try this poi.dat and keep you all posted as i know others with the same issues as i'm having.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Lord of darkness:
i've tried a working 5 & it crashes but mine works fine with the 3 one. you could always delete all poi.dat & see if it is faster.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
its still dying, with all tt pio.dat files. pain in the bottom, someone else on here has mentioned they have fixed this issue. grr
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] seanrkelly:
Is your copy a proper license? I used to use a pirate copy before I deceided to use the real thing. The pirate copy crashed all the time as you explained but the real copy wotks just fine.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
genuine. though i have done updates and added my own poi, just wondering is any other software is clashing.

been using tt since version 2 and have had bothe mobile versions on a nokia.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] andy-c1:
if your sd card is not a 80x speed it will crash all the time ,have you tried a transend 80x card as it has been established to work well and isn't that expensive
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] lydiachris:
I'm using a kingston elite pro (50X) SD Card with tomtom 5.10 with ALL the POI's checked and ALL the pocketgps.co.uk speed camera datebase POI's checked with alerts for the speed camera's and i have never had a lockup whilst driving using tomtom.

Maybe try hard-resetting your XDAIIi and installing everything manually NOT using sprite. That's what i did and my tomtom seems to work flawlessly.

What bluetooth gps are you using?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
ive tried hard reset a few time, even only with tt on it. no luck.

i'm not sure what speed my card is, but looks like this is most probably the cause then, matter of finding some cash then i think, or getting just a small 128 80x to stuff it on for when i need it.

tried it without the pio.dat file, still crashes. grrr.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] lydiachris:
Yes, bearing in mind i have a soley-devoted kingston elite pro 512mb just for the GB Plus map and the French map.

Perhaps if you get rid of all the other stuff from the card by formatting it in a card reader, try using "media recover" search around for it on google as it will wipe the card clean, this takes a while, but it will restore your card to it's original condition when you first bought it.

Then for the formatting, try reading this post i posted ages ago...

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=21920&highlight=lydiachris

Format your card this way to produce the best read/write times.

Now put all your data back onto your card, just copy then paste the files from your pc to your sd card. This will produce no fragmetation therefor your XDAIIi will not have to search around for the desired data on the card.

Give this a go and post your outcomes.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
yay, i found a apprently modified ttn.cab file through file share, installed it to my xda, it downgraded me from 5.1 to 5.0 but hasnt crashed or paused since, although ive only tried it locally, it seems fine, trying to find the time to take it 50 miles+ and see if it works

gonna try out your formating trick soon chap, will keep you posted

New XDA2i - TomTom 5.10 crash/freezing....

Hi all!

I got my new XDA2i through insurance after my 1st one's screen smashed. Installed all my apps etc including the TomTom 5.1 update andddddd it freezes every so often again ! dammm!

So, I double checked everything, all ok, the only thing I can think of is that the newer ROM this handset has is the cause of the lockups again.

I've looked through the postings on this topic and see slightly different versions on the radio version, protocol version etc.

This new XDA2i (I havent changed the ROM) is

ROM - 1.11.00 WWE

ROM Date - 01/27/05

Radio Version - 1.00.00

Protocol Version - 1337.39

EXTROM version - 1.11.162 WWE

Is it possible that some of these versions are known to cause a problem even with the updated 5.1? ( by the way I have the special Bakonl update ;) )

I use a Sandisk 1GB Card (normal speed), the TomTom silver BT GPS unit.

Interestingly, my brothers 'spare' XDA2s with this setup works flawlessly, so I know my install, SD card, GPS all work fine.

Any ideas guys? how do I update say just the radio version? or protocol version? so that my version match another user's version which are working with TT5.1 ?

I was really looking forward to getting GPS all working again as I've missed it these last 2 months ! and now it's doing that annoying freezing again!

Any ideas, recommendations, things to try will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers! Dennis! West London UK!!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
its the poi's

i accidentally hard reset my xda while on the go, but of course the tt sc card reinstalls itself so i set it going.

i said i had a hacked update but it dont seem to have made a difference but checked through what i'd done and all i'd done its renamed poi.dat to poi.dat.bak, so basically its not there to tomtom and all seems fine?!?!

try it let me know :)
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
btw, this worked wonders overall for the xda, nice and fast now. ive been keeping backups anyways in this way to keep fragmentation down but the info on the settings was ace. cheers
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] DennisCooper:
Cheers HyperFire!

Was looking through other postings and it could be the fact I need a faster SD card rather than the 'standard' SanDisk I have currently. I then looked through settings and have turned off POI's as I remembered that from previous pulling out of hair!

I'll try out TT with the POI's off probably at some point tommorow and check it out.. fingers crossed it works!!

Thanks once again for the response :)

Dennis! West London UK!!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
dont just turn them off, cos they are still being read just not shown, actually rename the poi.dat file so its not loaded. worked for me. i still run 3rd party poi (speedies ect) no problem?!?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] DennisCooper:
Hi!

To be sure, I've used file explorer to go to my storage card, great britian map and changed the name of 'poi' to 'poiamend' ... this is the correct file to amend right?!

I haven't had a chance to test at all today, combination of being at home all day and my TomTom Bluetoof unit in the car my bro took to work today!

I'll watch out for any replies tonight, amend and recheck if necessary and let you know how it works!

Also, the post by Lydiachris about the formating tools for the SD cards looks very interesting, and for $15 which is about 9 quid a nice cheap very useful utility! I shall be checking it out once my TomTom is all working good!

cheers for all your help !

Dennis! West London UK!!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] HyperFire:
yeah thats the file POI or POI.dat. I use resco file explorer so i can see extentions but what you have done would have the same effect.

Mine crashes too when live traffic update happens

Mine does this too, but only when it's doing a live traffic update. I changed the memory allocation [settings, memory] to give more emory to programs and less to storage. The next time I ran it, it seemed fine. I'm still in the process of nailing down whether this is definitely the cause, but I suspect it just runs out of memory to process the traffic info. Any thoughts on this anyone?

Was just sitting around looking for the same thing? Used it to have direct links to my Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sherrouse:
found a work around for this...

Things you'll need.

1. Photos of the settings widget you'd like to add to your home screen. ( You might not need this depending on what setting or settings your wanting to use.)

2. Apex launcher.

3. Desktop visualizer.

After installing both applications open desktop visualizer and proceed loading the setting image that you'd like.

Once done you'll be prompted to select an action you'd like to correspond with the image. Select other then select apex actions, should be at the top of the list.

Scroll all the way down to the S category and select settings, should read 247 options, if not your at the wrong settings.

Select your desired function and your all set.

You can uninstall both applications. This won't effect any functionality.

Hope this helps and drop me line if it does.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technomike:
I am looking for this and I guess my question to you sherrouse is, why do I need photos and desktop visualizer? Can't Apex Launcher add a widget for any setting I want with some stock images and just work?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sherrouse:
Unfortunately, I don't think apex launcher can create widgets that can be utilized by Touch wiz home. However the process might work if you intend to replace T.w home with apex as you daily launcher...

Hi my name is Thomas Kelly and I was wondering how do you root a Craig 10 inch netbook or also known as clp285 because I would like to access the Google Play market and all i can do is get the amazon appstore and slideme marketplace. I would like to see if there is some way to get android 4.3 on it cause it came installed with android 4.1.1 jellybean. If anyone knows this anwser please tell me and also how do you get into boot recovery mode on the clp285 cause i mean its an android device so it has to have a boot recovery. It would be graetly appreciated if someone has the anwser cause i have been looking all over. Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stnssn:
Google Play at least

I was working on a craig cvd601 and got everything done on it and then turned my attention to the CLP285. I have not successfully rooted it yet but I am working on it. I cannot post links yet but if you download both versions of the rom from the craig website, unzip them, replace the Google Apps folder in the CLP285 with the same folder in the cvd601 rom and then flash your device with the altered CLP285.

It worked that easy. I will repost when I find a root tool that can do this device. I am considering either a version of Uberoid or trying to put the flash from the cvd601 in. The second seems kinda risky because I don't know all the folders and files to be sure of. I am still comparing the files but it looks like I could just move the PID_USA folder and the +Nstar_PID10_8199_USA.fwc from the config folder over.

With Uberoid the closest fwc looks to be PID10_8199.fwc or PID10_8199_CCIR.fwc. Can someone advise me if these should work or the possible difference? Otherwise if nothing else I will try them and report back. I will keep my eyes crossed.

---------- Post added at 06:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

I know you can activate various settings in /system/default.prop once rooted, but can anyone tell me where the file is in the rom? I want to fix it there and then reflash. Right now the device doesn't load as anything when you plug it into a pc.
