At last ! More themes available the easy way!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
But only those 6 top/latest themes show up right ? How do you browse the rest of themes ?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tardolus:
Yes, but when I download B118 (zip) I cant even unzip it. "File is corrupted."

Here I made the Fast Mirror

Swipe your screen up the way
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lamplighter13:
Hi guys- Other than the online themes is there any other interesting stuff in that version ? I usually get my themes from my laptop anyway so the themes online is nice but not essential.

Is it worth the upgrade ?

LL13-
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tardolus:
Only 6 for me too. On Favorites and Newest... Swiping doesnt help.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alex.79:
Yes you are right. The themes is only 6. I flash after that B111 over the B118 without wiping data and online option for the themes is still there but the themes is much more. Now I can download themes online on my phone, and I use international version of firmware B111.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lamplighter13:
Serious battery drain since I am on this B118, I am hoping it settles down but will see tomorrow. The online themes are nice but again only a few to see and the search option is fekkin useless. May go back to factory B111, not much different as far as I can tell.

LL13-
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] neodante:
Think the same...I'll back to 111
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Steve-Savalas:
No battery drain for me since moving to B118. However, the online themes have disappeared!! The option was there after the upgrade, but now the only option at the top is LOCAL... Anyone else got this issue?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
I think you have to be connected to the internet. Because i did notice on two different occasions that i had only local but once it is connected, it comes back.

Also do post snapshot of your battery usage on the firmware topic.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Steve-Savalas:
Oh yes I'm definitely connected to the internet. Tried on wifi & mobile data.

I'll post a screenshot of my battery usage tomorrow - I'm going to leave the phone alone for the night as I just charged it this afternoon. It's currently on 98% after 5hrs 42mins with little usage. :good:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] stuartggray:
Are you guys having problems doing a factory reset? Because I have no problems and I DO NOT do a factory reset. It says not to in the instructions...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Steve-Savalas:
I think 'warea' had some issues with how smooth the phone was running & the phone getting hot following the upgrade to B118 and a factory reset sorted that out. I prefer to do a factory reset after a firmware update - I have settings etc. backed up and I just re-install any apps I need. Sometimes it's nice to have the phone put back to a clean state. I know some people can't understand why a factory reset is necessary after an update (and I suppose it isn't), but it certainly doesn't do any harm. :o
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Steve-Savalas:
I've worked out why my 'Online themes' option had disappeared! I opened Themes, went to settings and there was an option of 'Access location' - I allowed this and then the 'Online' option appeared again. If I go to settings now, the 'Access location' has gone. Maybe I disabled this app from accessing my location at some point.

Worth bearing in mind if your 'Online' option disappears :)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alex.79:
Only B118 has this option. I mean ''Online Themes''.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] stuartggray:
I'm back on B111 and I get online themes still. Lots of them. Anyone else getting this?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Maiik9x:
yes
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] hotlook:
Yes but there is only 10-12 themes.No more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Luriden:
I purchased Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing Transformed from the Play Store, but whenever it tries to install, my phone completely locks up. I have to pull the battery to shut it off.

I have a SGH-T989 (obviously) running CyanogenMod 10.1.3-hercules (latest stable version) with cl3kener's 3.0.72-Stock-BLN kernel. This is the first app I've ever had this problem with, everything else installs properly. I have plenty of space free on both my internal and external SD and I even deleted some unused apps just in case, as well as made sure I had enough RAM available to handle the install.

I download the app just fine over wifi, and it says installing pretty much infinitely until I either open or close a window or application, then the entire phone locks up.

This may or may not be relevant, but when I first purchased the app, the store said it was 400+ megabytes. After it downloaded all of that and installed (or attempted to and froze) for the first time, it now says it's a 40 mb download whenever I go to redownload it. Is there remnants of my previous download somewhere on the phone? Maybe It froze by sheer coincidence the first time it installs, and now it can't install properly until I find a way to clear it out and redownload and install the whole thing from scratch?

Or that might all be irrelevant. I'd just like to get this game working. I have not tried switching to another rom yet, I was hoping that would be a last resort. I don't want to have to switch roms entirely just to play this game I purchased.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craige:
Hello,

I am on latest stock firmware, and want to completely erase my phone and install a fresh copy of latest OS.

Now, I am not at all feeling comfortable in flashing myself as I am having limited knowledge and I fear I will end up screwing phone.

If I visit Samsung service center, they just reset the phone... when told to install fresh copy of OS.

So, what to tell them so they understand that I want all old OS related things to be deleted and install a fresh copy of OS. Also what I have to see to make sure they are indeed doing what I am saying... what will screen display ?

Sum pointers plz.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treacherous_hawk:
Pointers:

1. Install a philz kernel.

2. Wipe all the partitions after that.

3. Download the stock firmware from sammobile.com or Dr Ketans thread from XDA (this thread also has instructions/how-to for how to flash using odin)

4. Use odin to flash stock rom in download mode.

Before you proceed and make any mistake read about all the above and understand the risk associated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R0B3RTF1SH3R:
LOL. ok ill try not to laugh

goto settings about phone. check your version ... there may not be a update.

restart your phone "hold volume up and the menu button" when u get to factory recovery. use the "wipe/factory reset" that is as close as your going to get, (without using a custom rom). once done. u can goto the same "settings / about phone" and check "software update". if there is an update, you can download and apply it from there.

also check you have enough battery life before doing this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craige:
Cant I just go to settings and under backuo & reset --> factory data reset.

Is the this the same as the method u suggested above ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sushantp606:
First of all make sure wat u want to do, if updated stock firmware is wat u want then reset your phone and then update it if there is any.. this is the safe mode.

Now the other option u got is root it, install cmw, install kernel, n lastly custom ROM it will allow you to change CPU frequency and much more.. choose any custom ROM its olwAys better in the most criterias. But if you wanna stick to the stock ROM. . Just reset it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R0B3RTF1SH3R:
yes, almost the same, except. none of the files will be in use. if you use the restart method.

actually i think if you do the FACTORY reset from the phone while its booted. it will just restart and do the same "recovery" method? right?

sorry been a while since i did booted WIPE.

@ sushantp606

judging from the responses and stuff here. I am thinking this user is not at the stage to consider the stuff you posted, they are only after a basic wipe and update of the rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craige:
The problem is everybody always speak abt wipe... I don't wana wipe, I wana install fresh clean copy of latest official OS.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] warfareonly:
Hey guys, I have a Z Ultra and a Z1 (my dad's). He's letting me keep his Z1 in exchange for my Ultra. But I like my Ultra's screen but the Z1 has a better camera :confused:

Here are the pros of the devices as I see them:

Z Ultra -

1. Bigger screen

2. Can use a pencil

3. I've grown to like it :silly:

Z1:

1. Better ROMs (or at least, more)

2. Good camera

3. Bigger speakers

4. Smaller overall size

Now, the screen size of the Z1 is really small, I mean, it's tiny ! But it's got a better camera and 2 months of college have taught me how important a camera is :D. Add to that the fact that it has a better contrast ratio than the Z Ultra and I've got a sound conundrum on my hands...

Do any of you have any advice ?

@moderators this thread isn't intended to start a war between fanboys, please let it remain open. If you lock it, I'll have to take the coin-toss approach :eek:

Thank you all for taking the time to read this !
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Okay, WAREFAREONLY (LOL), I would pick the Ultra. The screen is huge and has way better viewing angles than the Z1 (Ultra uses an AH-IPS LCD while the Z1 uses a VA LCD) and therefore it's easier to use (browsing, gaming etc.), its design is much better than the Z1 (subjective) and it's so freaking thin. We got ROMs and the Z1 and Ultra share the same internals, so cross development is expected down the road, so it's all good in that department. The only negative aspects of it is the camera.

Z1: Chubby with a nice camera

Ultra: Anorexic with a bad camera
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
Personally, this is how I see it from the XZU point of view.

1. Camera isn't an issue. For perfectly good quality pictures, use a decent third party app. OK, no flash is an issue if night pictures are required. Personally I've never seen the appeal of phone cameras... I'd always use an slr.

2. Yes, the z1 has more developers, but I guarantee we'll be getting those roms as pretty much direct ports.

3. Speakers on a phone have never been intended as anything other than for notifications. Headphones will always be needed for actual media unless you're a bit weird.

4. If you got the XZU, there's something in you that loves this screen. I've looked at all the other 5.8 inch and lower screens and they are far too small. This is a true phablet and makes media stand out by a mile. You won't get that many other places. Thats all this phone is really about.

Stick with XZU. No comparison.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbdave:
Stick with the Ultra.

My wife has the Z1 and I find the screen to small for my work. I have gotten used to carrying the Ultra now.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Well.. you are only going to get a bias opinion from us. We are ultra owners.. so we obviously want the big screen.

I moved from the Galaxy S4 to the Ultra. Purely for the screen size.

I still had my S4 a few days ago, until i sold it. I picked it up to take some better images, but didn't want to use it. It has a better camera (like the Z1) but its just too small. In fact its bordering on ugly!

The Z1 is similar, but just to fat. Like Lord says.. I can't go to a fatter device, or a smaller device... The Ultra is for me! and I would think you would hate moving to a smaller device also.

Additionally [MENTION=398225]SpyderTracks[/MENTION] makes a good point. I've made 3 posts in the app section regarding mods that were originated on the Z1, and will work for the ultra. So expect what ever happens with the Z1 to happen to the ultra.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] waveloom:
Well, you decide whats better for you, but there are some facts and imprecision to revaluate in your points:

Z1 has not a better Rom, they have just updates at different stage.

Z1 has not a "tiny" screen, is a top huge smartphone sized for its class.

Ultra is +- 6mm thick

Z1 has not a better screen than Ultra

Ultra is more suitable for book reading too

Z1 has a better camera but now there is the option QX10 around: Ultra + QX10 = better camera than Z1, of course..for who dont care carrying much sized stuff outside.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] velvetmxo:
coming from the note 2 to the ZUltra was worth it. I was playing with my note 2 and couldn't adjust to the small screen. Go big or go home xD
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] warfareonly:
That's it, I'm sticking with the Ultra !

I just can't be separated from this huge, beautiful screen ! :D

I just bought a Dopod 900 and

1) was unable to install any applications in the Storage Card and run properly.

The applications are installed in the storage card "\儲存卡\Program Files", apparently :evil: programs can't run at all...

tried: bejeweled 2, omega calc, mapking v7, H&H dictionary, etc...

btw, Fitaly 3.5 VGA version screwed the Dopod 900 too, after i tried invoking or to set the fitaly keybard as default, virtual input keyboards cannot be called up by any applications.

so, the Universal is a great machine, but waiting for vendors to fix their apps for Windows Mobile 5

2) Windows Mobile 5 OS running @ 524 Mhz is soo choking slow... like the earlier Pocket PC slow down all over again. From hibernation to call pick up is soooo choked. Fubar! Big time

3) Battery life SUCKS big time... don't even ask me how long it'll last, i had half of the battery life drained during a dinner for casual browsing and email checking...

Hi

I'm wondering how to install the default keyboard icluded in Cyanogenmod 7.2 on the stock rom on Samsung Galaxy Ace s5830i. AFAIK it's the LatinIME.apk located at /system/app. I tried to copy it to my stock rom, adjust the permissions and rebooting but didn't work. I tried to install it over adb but it throws me an error telling that the app wasn't signed.

Someone knows how to install it? I really love that keyboard, it's very customizable and lightning fast, I had it on my old Galaxy Mini with CM 7.2 and I was very happy with it.

Thanks

Yea the devices have receivers, not transmitters. I'm not sure if you could retrofit a transmitter/receiver in there. I'm not sure how it would determine which way to switch the power (in or out) though unless someone writes an app that uses NFC to compare which one has the greater battery or provide a preference to which one is the receiver.

But not possible with the current config.

Hello,

I'm trying to manually install a custom recovery to my phone, my model is a LG L5 II, it was released early this year and its like a modified version of the L5..

I guess the blocks this phone uses for boot, recovery, system are different, so Im trying to make a partition table of the blocks.

Over ADB I used the "ls -l /dev/blocks/" command and I can see the blocks of the device, but for some reason no one has a specific name for it, I mean all the blocks say the same "root", any ideas why?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjubenv:
First, thanks to the AndroWook team for an excellent ROM, easy to install and very well supported on these forums. My install went perfectly from all of the help and instruction that was provided on these forums. My question is less about the ROM and more about how to selectively restore application data from a backup of the previous stock JB ROM. When I installed the TWRP recovery, I did a full backup of my old ROM before installing hairy bean, but I don't know how to grab the data from about 10 applications I have from the old ROM. Is there anyway to selectively restore the data from these apps? Should I even consider doing this? I have my pictures and music and contacts, but not my app data. Any ideas would be appreciated.
