[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeriL:
You can apply a patch developed by atis112 (I think that's the user name) for ICS AOSP based roms like CM9, AOKP, MIUI, XNovathor (last one is totally AOSP) to work on locked bootloaders..

ICS AOSP based roms leave more free RAM for user than Sony's ICS, but have a weird issue that turns Wi-Fi off and makes phone wake up slower when screen off AND battery not charging.. When battery is charging, Wi-Fi works correctly when screen off and turning screen on is as quick as expected..

Led bar doesn't work.. It can be fixed, but leds will turn on with every screen touch..

Low speaker volume.. Can be fixed with Viper4android..

If you don't use Wi-Fi, I recommend SlimCM (link to patch in rom's thread)

Sony's ICS based roms leave less free RAM, but you have more integrated features, like DLNA, social integration, correctly working led bar, BRAVIA engine, xLOUD and no weird AOSP issues.. Many Sony based roms's UI are almost identical to Xperia Z!

I recommend VeXU (Venezuela Xperia U Mod).. This rom is customizable during installation!

On both AOSP and Sony based ICS roms, battery life sucks, overheat, camera takes a lot of time to focus, and have some lags on heavy gaming.. Personally I don't recommend using ICS unless you really need it

There is no AOSP based 2.3.7 roms.. Some developers tried to port CM7, but they couldn't do it even with custom kernels made by them to fit the rom..

Gingerbread roms have very nice battery life, leave a lot of RAM for user (around 200MB or more), have all Sony's features (the same ones included in Sony's ICS roms) and are more responsive..

They are less smooth, but they are faster and open aplications quicker than any ICS rom!

I've been using GingerBeanSS with my AOSP theme on it for about 3 months and I'm very happy with it!

No JellyBean (or higher) roms on locked bootloader..

Power off when the power is disconnected would also be a good option to have, or power off after 5 minutes off power loss. Especially when the device is used in a vehicle etc.

Do you have any idea when will the update be released for my CID?

I am worried coz, i had rooted my phone, and installed custom recovery, but i am sure that doesnt stop me from getting the update.

Experts, pls advise.

firstly, wrong forum. Second, it's up to orange to release the update which should still be available to you even if you're rooted and have a custom recovery. you just need to reflash stock recovery and boot.img when the update is available. move this to q&a forums
[Droid RAZR M Themes and Apps] rosystreasures:
Ok, I am trying to make new a playlist that will stay on my device (razr m). I have tried to make one on the device, but you cant move the music around to make a specific list. Then, when you do take the time to do so - when the sd card is removed, you loose the playlist. I have tried windows media player and I keep getting errors of it not being able to sync several songs, which are already on my device.

Very frustrated!
[Droid RAZR M Themes and Apps] jco23:
I, too, have struggled with the same concept. for whatever reason, this app best works by creating your playlist online, and then syncing it to your phone - in turn, it will download your songs and place them in the internal storage. you'll notice that the size of this app increases as a result.

the app still recognizes songs stored on your external sdcard though.

my only other thought would be to use other music apps like winamp.

[General Topics] dreseansr:
To start this thread off, I will start by saying ying I am not bashing the developers in any type of way, just giving people my perspective and opinion.

Hello guys,

Let me start by introducing myself. I'm not new to this forums, ask many questions and do lots of research and from my research here is my conclusion.

People normally say they want a custom, stock feel of an android and that's why they flash rooms. If you want a pure droid feel get a Nexus device simple as that. Why flash a rom that takes away originality from the device? Things like S Voice, Samsung Watchon, multi window mode, WiFi calling and etc are very useful in everyday life. It's also what makes the phone better than an iPhone in opinion, the only advantage I see with roms are slight speed advantages and honestly, it isn't by much. I feel like roms are only better for games but if you're rooted, you can over clock your phone when you're playing games and problem solved.

I didn't go too much into detail, just stated a few reasons. Feel free to drop your opinions though, I'd like to hear why some of you think custom roms are better.
[General Topics] jmah10:
i rooted my s3 for the first time a few weeks ago, and the main reason was because i wanted the new 4.4 and heard that it wasn't going to come out for a LONG time through an official update. i was leaning towards buying the nexus 5 but when i found out i could flash a custom rom i tried it right away. i'm extremely happy with my decision because the new rom has been stable and makes the phone brand new again. like you mentioned, its much snappier without all the extra samsung extras.
[General Topics] PradeepMurugan:
you cannot overclock your phone by rooting

you need custom kernel for that
[General Topics] dreseansr:
Actually, you can. I've overclocked my phone lol.
[General Topics] tabnnaj:
It's not just for better performance but in custom ROM everything is better, such as battery life, it's the most important thing after performance.

You can also take the full control of the device after root and install a custom ROM. Games also is very important point for huge number of android user, because the stoke (original) android system cannot run games as smooth as custom ROMs.

Another reason is the lag, lag is a big problem in any android environment and up to now there is no solution for that, however, custom ROMs reduce the lag and make a better feeling for the user.

[General Topics] PradeepMurugan:
you cannot :mad:
[General Topics] mg.degroot:
Not in all cases a ROM makes for better performance, and in some cases it actually makes it worse if the ROM is not properly configured. But a ROM can give the device a plain android version without the bloat software from the device manufacturer, thereby increasing performance and stability. In most cases I don't think it increases performance over plain android other then giving access to overclocking and scheduling options

Hi guys,

I have ordered the nexus 5 from the US and looking for a good case for it. What other than the google's official bumper. Especially the Red & Yellow one is amazing. I was thinking of ordering it for quite some time but till now it has been out of stock. Anyone know any other websites where I can find the official bumper for nexus 5 in Red or Yellow only. Not much of a grey fan which is available in ebay. I know its pricey and I can go for way better options like spigen and cruzerlite and so on... Anyways, help me out here...

Thanks in Advance.

i have the spigen neo-hybrid myself, and it is a very solid case, the buttons feel great, protection seems pretty solid, the back of the case gets marked up pretty well if you keep it with your keys or something, but they are easily wiped away with some spit. I just ordered the spigen ultra fit clear case and it should be here by the end of the week. Spigen makes some pretty solid cases although some of their cases has been plagued by issues such as the slim armor case.

case compatibility

Does anyone use glass screen protectors? I use them and have ran into case compatibility issues...

I've had a few cases from ebay, a 'premium' one that fits the glass protector well, has good button feel the tpu edges, and hard plastic back one; all clear.

I've had another a replica Google case and it's real thin tpu but it pushes my glass screen protector up on the edges and gives me nasty bubbles under the protector.

Bottom line i don't feel a rubber case should cost 20 especially 35 bucks. I want a nice color case that works with the screen protector and after a year of my nexus I'm tempted to get an official case.

Suggestions?

PS I use my own spit to clean cases, works wonders.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wolfen69:
I have a suggestion. Use regular screen protectors and use whatever case you want. Otherwise deal with issues with some cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] 429and1:
So helpful... I'm going to remove my glass screen protector, get a cheap one that bubbles up and collects fingerprints, just so i can use other cases... cases that are probably cheap and crappy... like trolling with useless information...

Post 6 well used, thanks wolf.

oh and to not waste this post...

Heres some of cases i've used...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Google-...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item3392124529

this in blue and red both fit bad, buttons don't press well and it squeezes my screen protector up in the corner and makes air bubbles.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transparent...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item2598b8dff0

Just like this but all clear border, works great with glass screen protector, buttons are responsive, the clear hard plastic back sure gets a lot of scratches though.

I've had many other cases for my other phones; S3 and Droid X. I like TPU cases a lot and will continue to get them or even try the likes of spigen cases.

Just want to read a case thread with useful information thats all. BTW anyone have a good experience with the OEM Google case and glass screen protectors? Or is Everyone on XDA like Wolf and likes the cheapy plastic ones?
