[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kewkie:
Hey guys,

since i'm currently a flashaholic and dont want to stick with sense rom's (i just dont like them, can't say why). I'm trying around a bit, mostly with GPe rom's.

But whats the real difference between GPe and CM based rom's?

- Which rom/version is more stable?

- Which rom/version got the better perfomance/battery life?

I know that CM based roms are having more features and looking nice (at least for some peoples).

But i want a overall good performance, stability and moderate batterylife.

Thanks in advice
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
You've to try the roms for choose which is better.

Howeve the GE have some features like beats audio and some thing from sense, and the update are from htc with the latest release of android.

The CM rom have some features like the editing of status bar and so on, and are built from developers :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kewkie:
Well, i dont hear that much music, so beats-audio is useless, not at all, but a bit.

I'm tired of testing around :D

Just thought you guys can share your experience with some of your used roms :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
The problem is that mod don't like thread as: which rom is better for you?

This rom have a better battery then this?

And questions like this :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kewkie:
Yeah i know, but it actually isnt a thread like this :D

I just wanna hear some experience :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
Google play edition roms are built on HTC's framework, or they were when it released. AOSP roms are actually built from AOSP framework using the libs and drivers and device trees that have been custom built for the one.

So the foundation of the Google Play edition, the part the user never sees, is a lot closer to stock sense from HTC minus the interface and launcher, while CM and other AOSP roms are built from AOSP style source code (CM from their source, others from their own custom source code some of which is truly custom and some of which is modified from CM source)

There's a lot of advantages to running AOSP source code based romms if you're going for an AOSP rom, but theres also a lot of users that can't use adb or fastboot and don't want to learn how and don't care to read into a rom thread, and the google play edition stuff is nice for people who want a phone with a stock google launcher, that doesn't have the sense interface heft, and just want things to work with an out of the box type experience. You know the type, they don't do a clean install for six months and wonder why the headlights in their car blink and settings force closes when they press the volume rocker.

There are certain apps that will work with the GPE and others that will only work with AOSP source, so on and so fourth. Half the people are better suited for GPE rom's and stockish foundations and then the other chunk of the people only buy their phone so they wipe it till its raw getting HTC stuff off and get custom AOSP source based roms on instead. It all depends on the user and what's better fitted for their experience.

In your case if you're not running sense roms at all and you like to follow development from what I've seen because I've seen you on here a good bit, I'd get into some real AOSP for a bit and see how you like it. The good thing about AOSP is that it's infinitely customizable and any user that wants too could be theming in a week and compiling/merging source in a month and cooking roms for their personal use. Most people way less than that. That doesn't mean that the devs publishing roms don't have a lot of time in them, it's just much easier to compile and work with the source than the HTC source is and the senseish framework.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kewkie:
Thanks [MENTION=1748233]CharliesTheMan[/MENTION] Thats a pretty good answer :)

Well i liked CM/AOSP rom's on my other phones and never used stock-ish ones.

Well, mainly i use my phone for phoning around (no sh*t! lol), social networking, taking photos and derping around a bit.

I never used the sense-features (blink feed, zoe, beats-audio etc. - i like the gallery, but honestly.. i like quickpic much more, i like it minimalism), neither like the look of sense.

I'm just a bit scared of using an AOSP rom, i dont really now why.. maybe scared of phone-signal-breaks, quality breaks or something like this.

But to be honest, i have to test it by myself i know, like the performance, stability and battery - its stuff i have to test and figure out by myself, because everyone is using the phone not in the same way and everyone got other recommendation from a rom and i got the point you wanted to say with your post :)

Hi,

I am having trouble syncing Mobile favourites even when I click them as "Save Offline" in Internet explorer.

It seems as though it always wants to load the page from the internet on my M5000.

I tried to put it in flight mode so it wouldnt have connection and then I tried it but it failed....

any ideas what im doing wrong... it should be fairly straightforward as I have clicked the "offline" option in explorer on the pc

please help!!!!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xqizit:
I know its been a while but I still cant get this working.

Can someone please help? It still tries to load the online version.

I have followed every step by step guide I have found but it still wont load the offline content!

Please help!

Synchronizing mobile favorities works fine for me - however I have no experience in saving them as 'offline' with IE.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jab1a:
im notsure on the cure but have you tryed using SPB plus V3.0 because you can save offline content from the phones IE directly i think, its one of the opions, im sure when you sync with your PC it will only copy the offline link and not the content so the phone trys to connect to update its info.

im not sure if this is what you were looking for but its a start
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Riceburner:
Try turning off the "Available offline" option.

What that does is: while the Pc is ONLINE the page will be updated, then when you go offline the most up to date version of the page is there to view.

What I think is happening is that when the link is passed to the M5K, there is no history of what the page is, so PIE is going looking for it, so it can start storing a copy of it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xqizit:
ok thanks I will try that this weekend.

[Nook Touch General] marya.a:
I'm so desperate because I deleted the partitions from my nook with these instructions :

---you can google it and the first link it is--->> "how-to-backup-and-restore-nook-glow-and-nook-simple-touch"

So... I think my backup wasn't well written :S or something like that.

When I deleted the partitions, EVERYTHING went to hell... My nook is actually freeze, my computer doesn't recognize it at all when I plug the cable. My nook just turn the tiny light on, what means it is charging.

---------->Now, my doubt is: is there any hope to my case? how can I fix it? )= how can i make my lap recognizes the nook reader?

Is there any backup file to write on a sd card

?

I press the button to turn it on but anything happens.

I've tried nookmanager(this one couldn't make a restore backup nor factory.zip) and the "alpha format touch" (this one tells there's a lack o "log", and a few more files.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
So if you followed those directions you should have ended up with a file on your desktop about 1.9 gigabytes, right?

(If you have a DVD burner, burn that to a DVD, it will make me feel better.)

Why, oh, why do people delete partitions?

You still have the SD card with the Noogie on it, right?

That will still boot up saying "Rooted Forever"?

Now use WinImage (or whatever you used) to write the image back to the Nook.
[Nook Touch General] marya.a:
YES, I hvae the noogie in my sdcard

I also have my file with 1.8gb but i've tried to write it on the sd card but I don't know what happened, it seems like the file was empty :S because when I put the sd card into the nook and try to turn it on the screen still says:" Rooted for ever", even if I press the button a few seconds (maybe 30 seconds)

If I try to open the 1.8gb file with winimage, there's something like the image

it takes more? :o
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
You don't write your 1.9 GB file to an SD card, you write it to the Nook internal memory.

With the Nook booted up on the SD card with Noogie, connect USB and use your utility to copy the 1.9 GB to the Nook.

What you showed in your snapshot does not look promising.

You might have done the backup after the Nook was trashed or else corrupted the backup.

Be careful with that 1.9 GB file, you do not want to lose it.
[Nook Touch General] marya.a:
22499299 1140

Thank you for your advice.

Maybe you are right: I didn't create the backup img. as it should be.

Now, i'm wondering if there anybody who wants to share a backup image from a "good" nook and mail it me.

Do you know someone ? T___T Please!!, I'd really appreciate it!
[Nook Touch General] straygecko:
You really don't want to use an image from another device as are there are device specific things on the image. Slow down and don't be in a hurry to find another image yet. You might not be in as bad of shape as you think. 1.8GB is the right size for a backup so you may be OK. As Renate said - DON'T LOSE IT.

Now a couple of things. You said you wrote the image to the SD card and rebooted the device with the SD card in the device. As Renate pointed out this isn't how you restore. And once you finish restoring you reboot without the SD card in the device - if you've got a Noogie card in the device it will always boot the Rooted Forever.

I question whether the WinImage screen shot you posted is actually from your backup. With the size partitions its showing a 1.8GB image file seems quite a bit on the small side. In any event it can't hurt at this point to try a proper restore to the Nook and see if it works. Have you followed the instructions on the page you poitned to to restore your backup:

3. Plug your Nook into your computer with the USB cable.

4. ... instructions on deleting partitions... You already did this, no need to do it again

5. To restore, open Roadkil’s DiskImage software. Use the “Write Image” tab this time and select the Nook Drive from the drop-down list. Select the source file, the backup image you created earlier, and hit start to restore.

6. When the restore is finished, you can disconnect your Nook from the computer and remove the noogie microSD card and reboot.

Try it and report back.
[Nook Touch General] marya.a:
Actually I realy want a nook backup, another backup ( I think there's not another worst thing than this one =s ), because I've tried lots of times the steps you have described and dont work. Actualy my pc doesn't recognize when I plug the nook in.

**When I do the step #5 my nook doesn't response, just appears the well known image: "rooted for ever", but does not turn on, even if I press the button for a long time**

Please, I think I really need another backup image )=

Well, I hope your advice.
[HTC One X+] danielpinch:
Hi guys,

Just updated my HOX+ to 4.2.2 (ARHD 8.0 + Viper 2.0.1). Everything worked fine but the camera.

Camera does not save any pictures to gallery.

When I'm taking a picture, the gallery's thumbnail stays the same and there is no picture in DCIM folder (or anywhere else).

It is happening in two different ROMs so it is not a ROM issue. Nor is it hardware, because 3rd party camera apps work just fine and saving pics.

Been googling this for about two days and could not find any issue similar to mine (not exactly anyway).

Int. HTC One X+ running JB 4.2.2 Mike's ARHD 8.0 ROM.

Any thoughts?

And please tell me if there is any info I should add.

Hey All,

I've never had issues installing roms in the past, but now that I have encountered a problem it seems to be a big one.

I 'updated' from a nightly build of CM10.2 to the Milestone 1 version of CM10.2.

My phone booted after the update, but things were closing and not responding, so I decided to see if a reboot would solve some issues. It didn't.

Now my phone won't get past the boot screen. When I go into recovery, CWM states that it can't mount or open /sdcard, /cache/recovery/log, /cache/recovery/last_log.

I can't do anything.

In addition, adb won't find my device.

Any suggestions?

Are you using the latest version of CWM?

I suggest flashing the update again just to be sure. You can flash a new recovery from the bootloader using fastboot.
