[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steala:
Thanks guys! :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lynxboy:
There is an unofficial Google Edition ROM for S3. Try Ultimarom. It's based on Samsung firmware, but with AOSP elements and theme. You get the AOSP experience without losing the Samsung camera and multiwindow implementation.

Regards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Totally not what he's looking for, even partially.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lynxboy:
Considering the Google Edition ROMs found on the S4 and HTC One are essentially skinned versions (hybrid style) of those devices' stock ROMs, I think it may partially be what he is looking for. I mean, he makes no mention of AOSP, so how you could deduce that my suggestion is totally not what he is looking for is beyond me. :p

Anyway, hope OP finds what he is looking for!

Regards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
For me Google Edition is pure AOSP, without Sammy's features, as it would be pointless to call it google edition then.

But that's just my definition, maybe we have different ones.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moster2:
Agreed with archi. The one that actually gets closest to google roms is supernexus
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Gotta chime in here... I'd agree with Archi. On my S4, I'm running the Google Edition ROM, because I don't want/need any of Samsung's stuff.

But that said, I've done my best to ensure that UltimaROM is as slim as you want it to be, including running many AOSP apps natively.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackHanAnLG:
Its not exactly a Custom ROM but I hope this helps? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0kGktOfCIk
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lddsys:
OP can try slimbean or carbon, but I'd not recommend it. If you want pure google feeling, you can try cm, but nothing else. They are worthless, unfortunately: laggy, slow, draining battery, and tbh offers nothing. And maybe we have the same problem: we want a ROM that works great, fast, but has some features. I don't need the samsung bloatware either. (But I like tw and the tw camera)

You should try the miui rom by ihackers. It's not AOSP (Google "feeling"), but a beast, no battery draining, no samsung bloatware and the UI is beautiful. I think it's worth a try.

If you're looking for the pure google feel only, please ignore my post.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Woolf:
I think your post needs ignoring in general - because it's full of crap.

<=> minimal
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
I know Kryten2k35, never said that your build is bad, because we both know that it's great :).

However it's the same as "Hey, I want MIUI on my SGS3", "Suuure here you got CM 10.2 and MIUI theme from here, enjoy!"

For me google edition is google edition, pure AOSP and nothing else.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lddsys:
Okay, sorry.

cm draining my battery, but miui don't. (performance tweaks)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steala:
To be really honest with you all, I am not at all too technical when it comes to Android, ROMs and all the rest, so when you say AOSP, I don't have too much of an idea as to what you mean. But, I heard about Google edition ROMs and I know it comes without the Samsung bloatware. But there are a few Samsung features I still want.. Like, NFC, S Beam etc...

Yep, I agree with you :) Again, tis why I run the GE ROM on my S4. I don't really want the instability of Cyanogen (potential) and I just want stuff to work.

I'm working on something cool for the S3, though :) Hopefully I can pull it off.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 2Radon:
I have installed

Walkman Experience Elite ROM

(

4.0.4

) and it shows

kernel 3.0.8

.

The problem is, I can not get into fastboot!

I turn it off, hold Vol+Up and plug in USB, but the blue LED appears only for a couple seconds, then goes off and the phone just continues charging.

I installed Android SDK stuff and I couldnt use it to fastboot CM10 boot.img. I tried Flashtool, AND I installed the drivers.

(Note in case it matters (don't think so): at first I downloaded fastboot drivers alone and installed, but after installing Flashtool those may have been newer drivers, I tried to install them too but it said I already have)

Even after installing the drivers my Xperia U showed no signs of working fastboot, and PC still couldn't recognize it in fastboot.

I had problems installing the drivers, as I found out - because of

Windows 8.1

, but I got through that.

Another question: Does Xperia U change from ST25a to ST25i depending on kernel/ROM or something? (I have

ST25a

)

Please help! :(

I noticed this on my Nexus 7 2013, it's really annoying when you want to say read in bed and the lights are off it's far too bright. I found using the app Brightness Adjuster solved this. It lets you go way below the firmware level of brightness and I have found it excellent. May work on your NIII.

Thanks, yet another auto brightness app works brilliantly.

Looking forward to getting this. Apparently it will use less storage and memory than previous versions of Android.

Yeah, it's supposed to be more efficient. But all I'm going to say is I got 4.4 on the Nexus 7 and it uses 615mb of RAM while not doing anything. (as in only Settings app and keyboard running). Not sure if it's just because it's an early version or something's wrong.

Dude, I can't wait for Kitkat on the Kindle Fire! :D

And as to the question of different memory usages at idle, I read on google's dev site that there's an API that allows apps to use more or less RAM for fancy features or whatnot based on weather the device is a low-ram-device....

There is a euroskank build up (the thread's in KF General) but it won't work with any of our recovery options.

Anyone else had this problem?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] VOODOOS!L:
no, didn't had this problem... is the reset button working correctly? (can you do a normal soft reset)

there is also an application in the settings of your ppc called 'Clear Storage', I think it almost has the same effect as a 'Hard reset'

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dubsylva:
Hi there, it's the first time ever I'm creating a new thread. Pardon me if I mess up. I have two cell phones, one is Nokia 5230 pretty old feature phone which I'm using for the company and my personnal phone, which is a Note 2.

In addition of this, I'm using Sync in my car, obviously.

I'd like to have both phones connected to Sync but that's not possible at the same time. I had an earpiece which did that, but my car doesn't.

Now I'd like to control my Nokia remotely with my Note 2 the same way my Sync controls my Note 2 (place call, answer call, forward the voice). I'd like to use my Nokia only to have a line.

I know computers can do that (I could have my laptop control my Note 2 and getting the voice) so I'm quite sure my Note 2 could do the same with my Nokia 5230. On top of that, I'd really like my Note 2 to get the calls of my Nokia and redirect them to my Sync, this would be heaven!!

If someone has a solution, he/she's my angel!!

Would it be possible for me to get Ubuntu Touch 14.04 on my captivate glide I927?

It currently has a SlimBean rom with clockwork recovery which works fine but if I try to flash Ubuntu Touch it won't work.

I was wondering if it would be possible for me to do this, and how I would?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] AndyYan:
Someone has to prebuild an image for us specifically - Ubuntu Touch is device-specific, like those Android ROMs.

And there's no 14.04 yet - it's to be released April 2014.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] harrisonkevin:
Okay, thanks for filling me in on some more info :)

Do you know of any Ubuntu Touch roms, or anything like Ubuntu I can use on the captivate?

I just wanna mess around and I know using a captivate glide there aren't too many roms but I can't afford a better phone and I actually like this phone for now :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] AndyYan:
Sorry, no. As you already said, Glide has very few ROMs, and all we have are either fully-working stock ROMs that got stuck at Android 4.0, or custom ROMs up to Android 4.3 but with major or minor flaws.

As for Ubuntu Touch - you wouldn't want to install it unless your phone is not for daily use. It's far from complete, although a "stable" release was already out for Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4. I flashed a build on my Galaxy Nexus and hell, I literally returned to my original ROM in 5 minutes.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaoxt:
Trying to figure out how to get a working Android tablet to play in my car's USB port. Apparently the SGS3 Easy UMS app works, where you are able to play music through the car using that app, as it has a sim card slot to fix the issue where usually the car will say device not supported, as is my issue with the Nexus 4.

I was trying to get a Nexus 7 tablet installed in my car, without redoing all the stereos etc. to get USB sound, but it seems that may be the only way to go. I really want a USB connection, and not Bluetooth / Aux, as the sound quality is inferior...

Car: Chevy Cruze 2012

Tablet of choice: Nexus 7, but may go with a Galaxy Tab, if I'd be able to use USB that way.
