[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopeless_guy103:
Hey guys,

Got the Samsung galaxy Ace s5830i, just come outta the box, and discovered its got some old 2.x version of gingerbread :eek:

Time to Flash a new rom i think!

Just quickly looked through the ROM's but there are loads of them.... so heres a question:

What rom is most like 4.2 Andriod Jelly Bean? I'm looking to make my phone as much like the ROM on the samsung galaxy sIII.

il be happy to hear any opinions on whats the best ROM, which looks and feels like the jelly bean 4.2 rom on the s3? (can you post links if u mention a rom please, so i can decide what to flash :D!)

Thanks

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S H A D Y:
There's no such thing as best rom. Read Rules before you post. Browse though the development section and see which rom suits you more
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopeless_guy103:
Yeah, there is no such thing as a best rom, but im asking what people's preference is, as long as their rom looks like andriod 4.2
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mathm2013:
Don't be lazy and test roms by yourself, like everyone else. No one knows you and what you needs, so it might be hard for us to guess what is the best rom for you. So, please do not create threads like this and do this type of question further. There are plenty of roms in the style you said.

Thanks for the understanding,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtpryan:
Our company has inspectors that go to job sites and, once there, fill out a paper form (1 page). This form is then given to somebody at the office that inputs it into a web form.

I would like to replace this with a tablet based form that they can fill out and then sync the output file once they get a WiFi connection. The output file would be best as tab delimited. They could use a Dropbox or Google Drive account for the sync. So, does anybody know a good form building app for Android tablets?

-Jim
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenobol:
maybe they could use already existing applications, like Google's Quickoffice, combined with drive?

"a good form building app for Android tablets"? seems legit :P

if you want to code the application yourself, you ca nuse android studio as sdk.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtpryan:
Yes, I looked at Google Forms. It is perfect in almost everything. But I can't seem to find a way to create a form, then put the form, as a stand alone document on the tablet. I can create a form and mail a link to it, but that's it. Keep in mind that these inspectors will NOT have an internet connection while in the field filling this out. The data collected would have to be synced when connected to a wifi location. So basically all I want is a form that writes the data to a local (hopefully tab delimited) file that could reside in a Google Drive or Dropbox folder.

I downloaded the SDK and will look at that. Just don't want to reinvent the wheel.

Thank you for the reply

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtpryan:
Thanks, but this is like every other solution, it has a per month per user cost. I just want to save the contents of the form locally to the tablet.

So I bought a new phone and one of the apps (catch) is no available in play store any longer.

I really like it and want to continue using it. So is there any trusted source for old apks?

[General Questions and Answers] S_hades:
If you've got the app running on the old phone, you can try to back it up with apps like Titanium Backup (requires root) or App Monster or similar. You can then transfer the apk from the sdcard to your new phone and reinstall it that way.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pep4eto1211:
So probbably this had been asked before a lot of times but i couldn't find something to help me- I am relatively new to Android and I have a Boxchip A13 1.2GHz Cortex-A8 Processor Chineese tablet- Jetway ALfar 781-8g. So it came with ICS 4.0 and I want to install Jelly Bean on it somehow. So is there any way I can achieve this? I don't mind rooting it or stuff like this I just want to know if I can run Jelly Bean on it. So I will really appreciate if someone give me a good answer to this and tnx in advice :)

you MUST reflash a kind of stock/not gps moddified version :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvilAaron:
Getting this same issue on wifes Nexus 4. Its stock with the 4.3 JB OTA no mods or root since that OTA. Can't understand why GPS.conf could be changed.

If I root and TWRP could a factory image update.zip with the -w wipe removed work to get her to KitKat without wiping and redoing her phone? I am used to flashing custom roms this stock ota stuff is giving me a headache.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
You do not use custom rom or custom recovery to flash factory image. Use the links in my signature for instructions.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvilAaron:
I understand that, she is stock ROM, with stock recovery and not rooted when she is having this issue. No root TWRP or custom rom involved. Since it wasn't working with stock recovery was looking for options without wiping device during factory image flash to fix GPS.conf file thats buggered.

She got the OTA normal way on her phone this afternoon, but it failed. Will check out your sig links when I get home and see if I can solve this without spending all night setting her phone back up from a factory image wipe :/ :D Thx for feedback and any pointers :o
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
The flashing will required an unlocked bootloader, so if its not unlocked you will lose all data when unlocking it. (Doing a factory reset in stock recovery also wipe everything.)

I don't really know what else you can do, if there were never any modifications, then the problem is due to Google having too much protections and issues for their OTA packages.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvilAaron:
Unlocked so can do the method in your guide. But she says she wants to clean up her phone so a clean start will probably perform better and she gets the clean slate she wants, problem solved :D Though OTA checks annoy me now lol

thx for the feedback and guides :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] scifan:
I bought a ZL that I intend to run on T-Mobile.

I haven't read through all of the the rooting specific's... the phone's a non-contract phone so I can unlock it if I need to...

Are there any roms that have been ported over from the C660x platform that work on our C650x phones?

Specifically, has anyone ported a C6606 rom to the C6506 phone?

Based on what I've read thus far, I suspect this is "doable"... but am curious if anyone's tried it...

Would expect there would be some libraries and other framework challenges... but since the hardware is so similar, it seems like a potential slam dunk...

Thoughts?
[Sony Xperia ZL] LiLTrippz:
You need to first check if you have a unlocked bootloader. if you don't then try rooting the phone, then checking again.

I need to backup the TA DRM info before I do much of anything to it... it's a non-contract brand new phone so I believe I can unlock the bootloader... (have all the tools downloaded... but my wife hadn't finished looking it over before I root it and use TiB to restore her apps... ;)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pzucchel:
Hi to all,

i would like ot independently comment on the 1.6.7.1 ROM performances, since there were mixed opinions/conclusions. I moved from ROM 1.1.7.8 (radio 1.4.10.0) to the ROM here described but with the RUU_prodigy_1060701_QTAK_WWE_SHIP.exe procedure described on these pages since it looked to me more "standard". I used awizard1.2 to unlock and backup my rom as described in this forum, and everything worked very smoothly despite it was the first time i was ever trying to do such an operation. Importantly, i have to mention i have a QTEK9100 with a french keyboard, and i liked the idea of going to english OS anyway. Importantly, in the ENGLISH soft keyboard numbers are accessible directly - impossible in the french version (don't ask me why french people had chosen this way, probably to make space for important accents?)

Conclusions: the PDA works MUCH,MUCH better BY FAR than before. I am not speaking of the computing speed which i don't care, i am speaking of the smoothness/time of most everyday operations like protrait-landscape transitions, launch of applications, menu access, wifi speed, lock-up, installation of software, mini-SD access, etc. I made the comparison correctly, i.e. both versions after hard_reset. In addition, the Camera light started working (before it was totally dead). In addition, i suspect that before i had the infamous queue problems-slugginess of alarms since i had lost a few. This is probably disappeared after a few days of 10 mins testing. Before i had definitely quite a few duplicates in the notification queue that now have totally disappeared.

gprs is working correctly, i am not sure the infamous edge is activated (at least i don't have any evidence). This is true for both versions.

If i would have to complain, wifi is slower than i "expected" with both rom versions. I achieve only about 10-50 KB/s on a 800KB/s line....do you experience the same?

Strongly recommended to everybody and, as i mentioned, i am not among the geeks that developed these techniques so please consider this opinion as independent _ a sort of way of saying THANKS to the developers that possible and added an additional service to us QTEK buyers (apparently, HTC culture doesn't seem to be very supportive to people already gave them the money despite they have significant improvements...). Again, thanks to all of you.

Best,

Piero

p.s. i am on the way on remapping the french keyboard and...the volume slider which in fact is apparently the only function not operational. I guess it is part of the keyboard remapping, which i am going to setup with aekmap

p.s. on the qtek 9100. Being a previous palm treo owner, the qtek beats it in all aspects....except the internal loudspeaker sound quality. Despite controversial discussions on the topic, the loudspeaker on my treo was high power, strong bass, high trebles, while the qtek9100 sounds like apollo from the moon....

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] emerica243:
So my work phone is a full unrestricted plan. Yes I know att doesn't theoretically have unlimited data. But my question is would that sim give me LTE connectivity in my tablet. Or is there a special tablet package that needs to be enabled on the sim that costs more?

TLDR; Can i use my att LTE sim that i use for my cell phone in my Nexus 7 tablet?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] OldMessage:
Here is how it works in Germany (and I assume that is how it works everywhere).

You have a SIM Card which is on a GPRS Plan (normal data connection) and if you buy a special option for LTE you account will be upgraded and the SIM-Card which was running on GPRS is now able to connect to an LTE Network.

So in essence, you need an special LTE Plan, which cost more money. AND you need to be in an area where LTE is available, otherwise you pay more but the data speed is as slow as without LTE.

And DO NOT BELIEVE that you are getting 100 or more MBit/s, that is the maximum speed for that LTE Channel in the optimum distance.

If there is another LTE User with you on that channel, the speed drops. Last seen here in Munich at the Octoberfest where 30 or more people tried to connect to one particular LTE Access-Point and the system slowed down to a crawl.

On the other hand, if you have an LTE enabled phone/pad, you are getting normally a better speed performance out of an GPRS connection.

And yes I can be wrong because I am human, laugh. But based on my experience I am not.

J. :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] emerica243:
My phones Sim is a LTE enabled sim. What i need to know if theres a special TABLET option that needs to be enabled on the sim for it to work in the tablet. Theres mixed answers around the web.

F.A.Q

Will the warranty bit change to 1?

As you can see above mine is still 0. I also expect this because with this guide we flash a by Samsung signed firmware. But I read also in other guides for other devices that in some cases the bit is increased to 1. So, don't be surprised when this happens.

Can I get system status 'Official' back?

Yes, with both methods from above, you got current binary: 'Samsung Official' and system status: 'Official' back after you flash a custom recovery or ROM. Only the warranty bit will in this case stay 1.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Elim:
I, like others, did it (the MK1 is only for some regions available) and didn't trigger knox. Like I said, this firmwares (from the sources above) are the original ones which are still signed by Samsung. If you flash something with a custom recovery or already rooted than this will not be the case and you will trigger knox.

PS. If you have also an P600: I flash "P600UEUBMK1_P600XARBMK1_HOME.tar.md5" which is for region "Cellular south" which is surly not "Luxembourg".

PPS. And until now I didn't have any other problem because of the different region.

PPPS. In the meantime I rooted my Note and trigger therefore knox. But also this seems no problem for me. I can still flash the stock firmware and got then OTAs (set bit is still set to 1). And the warranty will be still given for 6 month in Europa. Only extra guaranties by Samsung will be maybe a problem. And here I didn't care.
