You can not install any boot.img with locked bootloader, you can just ruu back.

If you want to install cm 10.2 unlock your boot loader, download cm10.2, flash boot.img from the downloaded zip and flash cm from recovery. Otherwise you can just ruu back
[HTC One S] willi1972:
Hi,

I had tried this, but got into an endless fuzzy blue screen loop. This was because of S-on I believe. I had relocked the bootloader in preparation for an RUU.

I had figured that my best way out of this mess would be to flash a stock ROM, turn S-off and then flash cm

Regards

Hey everyone. I've been recently cleaning out my PC and my android folder took up roughly 12 gigabytes, but as i was going through it i ran across an old mod i used on my old LG. I looked it up on Google and seems like the tweak has been deleted or discontinued therefore i cannot give credit to whom ever made it. But, basically its a .zip you flash and it supposed to save you alot of battery life and improve performance and add a bit more butter to jellybean. I've tried it and seems to not work. Maybe someone could tinker with it and see what they can do...i just get 'failed' from twrp.

You're free to use it.

BUT

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF THIS BREAKS YOUR PHONE, CAUSES THERMONUCLEAR WAR OR YOU GET FIRED FROM WORK BECAUSE YOUR PHONES ALARM CLOCK DIDN'T GO OFF.

This is just standard procedure guys, i hope it doesn't break anyones phone because mine didn't break. Enjoy

I rebooted my phone today, and when it came back up, I had Safe Mode displayed at the bottom of the screen. Also I was missing most of my installed apps. The few installed apps that were still there had a faded look to them.

Below is a screenshot of what I saw. I'm just wondering how do you enter safe mode? I just never seen this, and never heard of this before as well. I've only seen this on a Windows pc's.

Judging by how previous versions of this apk were handled just fine by almost any Samsung device i'd say it'd work just fine. Be sure to report back so we can share your findings. I sure others have asked themselves the same question!

Scroll all the way to the bottom and click "Free Download", this will take you to the final page where you wait about 10 seconds and then you can download the file.

Dirty Flashed on 1/18 vanir nightly toro and got messenger force close. Was in ART though not sure if that made a difference or not. About to crash for the day and I'll try again tonight on a clean install into davlik and see if that changes anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alcolawl:
Any luck? I wonder if it has something to do with the directory that it installs in. I'm not sure if it exists in other ROMs, the MMS apk that I edited was out of Cyanogenmod and so I have this flash right back into it's rightful directory. Although, it'd make more sense that if the directory doesn't exist that it'd just create it.. So you may be right about ART.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThePhantom97:
I changed to art yesterday and this would just FC. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alcolawl:
Weird. I just switched to ART today using CM11. The stock MMS app works just fine. I'll try flashing this in a little bit, if it FCs then I'll rip the APK from my current nightly and theme that one, considering it works for ART and see if it works that way. Supposed to get a pretty good snow storm here in the North East so assuming classes are cancelled I'll have some free time to fool around with it on Wednesday.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Zilliman:
I have looked at the specs and it seems the Amazon Kindle HDX 7" is as good or better on paper than the Nexus 7 2013. I also presume it does not suffer from the screen touch issues that the Nexus suffers from.

Are there any distinguishing differences between the two devices that make one better than the other?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] tgyberg:
For one I wouldn't want to run that whacky Amazon OS
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] purephysics:
I quite agree. The Kindle fire HD does have good specs, but the nexus comes about as stock as you can get and you can't really put a price on that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Zilliman:
I am new to all this, but is it not possible to get rid of the stock ROM and install CM on the Kindle and then we do not have to worry about the Amazon OS anymore and all we have left to compare is specs and quality ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] purephysics:
Yeah absolutely, or Xposed.

I'm looking at the two side by side on GSM Arena (www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idphone1=5727&idphone25600) and in realism there isn't much in it; Snapdragon 800 / S4 Pro, 0.5GHz on the clock speed, Andreno 330 / Andreno 320. On paper I don't think there's much difference in them at all, you're right .

I would wager the deveoplement support for the Nexus is going to be a bit better, as the Nexus really is a development platform so to speak. So the ROM/Xposed module/Kernel /modding releases are going to me be more think and fast. But that's about all I can see.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Zilliman:
Actually the Kindle's CPU is well faster, from 1.5GHz to 2.2GHz that is a 47% improvement.

The Nexus 7 has screen issues - thousands of posts on that. I had thought my Nexus was OK because I only bought it a few weeks ago, but I did the test today and mine also misses touches. I am not really planning to play games with it, but I am thinking why bother with a problematic device.

Yeah I got my numbers mixed up, it is a 0.7 GHz hike, not 0.5.

Well I don't think it fair to call the Nexus 7 a problematic device as there are millions of units that have not suffered any problems. And though mine misses the odd touch in landscape view its fine otherwise.

The Kindle fire XHD does look very good on paper, but there may be hidden issues with that too. I'd like to try one out though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Deleted member 5163087:
I previously owned a kindle fire hd and boy was it a pain in the butt. Having to install a second bootloader to get a custom recovery was a hassle. Development wouldn't have been possible without Hashcode's work. Though once you get through all that, it really is a nifty device.

Now I'm not sure if the HDX is any easier to tinker with, but nothing beats the ease of rooting and flashing on a Nexus device.

Really? That is a definition of something that is problematic.

It is because of this acceptance of a known problem by so many users that makes Nexus feel it not necessary to correct it. I tried and returned 3 Units none of which of their screens responded even close to my original Nexus 7. Its too bad because other than that it had great potential.

Does yours miss a touch if you are holding it in one hand? Apparently the problem only manifests itself if you are NOT holding it (some kind of earthing issue).

I prefer the slim shape of the Nexus 7 to the wider Kindle HDX that's for sure.

What I am currently p*ssed off about is the inability of the stupid Nexus to make phone calls. Really annoying.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Zilliman:
Can you please tell me what exact tests did you run before you returned your devices? Was the tablet held in one hand or was it laying on a table? Did you try the three point touch at 90 degrees test or some other type of test ? For example if the tablet is resting on my lap there are no issues with the 3 point touch test and the device correctly registers 3 points, but as soon as I place it on the couch the problem is immediately obvious and at 90 degrees the device misses one point.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] purephysics:
I doubt any Nexus owner necessarily "accepts" the screen issues, but many have certainly learned to live with the odd missed touch. This kind of thing can and does happen on many touchscreen devices, it happens from time to time on my Galaxy Note too. In fact it happens about as regularly as it does on the Nexus, which I would say is about once in every 70-100 touches I would guess. On my Nex it only happens when it is lying flat for some reason, the rest of the time it's touch perfect.

A problematic device to me is one that has no end of troubles, processor lag, screen issues, touch issues, charging issues, hardware and software faults. The Nexus has one or two rough edges, but on top of those it's a very capable little tablet.

I understand what you mean about the Nexus brand slipping because people are putting up with faults when they should be speaking out, but people are speaking out about the screen issues. The only thing we can do I hope that the manufactures listen and make the changes needed for the next one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kingston73:
I think its really unfortunate that some people won't buy this because other people are loudly complaining. I'm sure some people have legit problems but I also think others go out of their way to try to find problems. I don't think I've ever owned a PERFECT electronic device of any sort, even my Apple products have sometimes been less than perfect and they are the poster child for no issues.

If you have a tablet with problems and you don't notice the problems, doesn't that mean the problems don't exist?

Back on topic, I think if you want the latest updates it's a no brainer, go with Nexus. If you don't update and don't customize, well maybe go with the kindle?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] purephysics:
I quite agree, perfection in electronics is very often user defined. The Nexus to me isn't a perfect device, not because of the screen issues, but because of the lack of expandable storage. But I get over that with an OTG cable, so no sweat.

What qualifies as perfect to one person is terrible to another.

and back onto subject; the HDX sure looks like a fantastic device, but I'm more than happy with my Nexus 7 and even if I saw the HDX first I'm sure I would have still picked the Nexus. Specs on paper only mean so much.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Zilliman:
I think there are thousands of users with problem screens, and mine (which I very recently discovered suffers too) is not just a coincidence. I now believe the problem exists on all tablets regardless if the users have discovered it or not.

We also know that this only happens if the tablet is not held, is not resting on your lap and is not connected to USB. So there must be thousands of users that have not seen the problem because let's admit it, most of the times you'd be holding the tablet in your hands.

The more important fault is that the screen develops hairline cracks which disable touch in various areas completely! The only solution is to replace the screen/tablet. Judging from the reviews on Amazon, apparently the screen is very sensitive to knocks and to flexing, and develops these imperceptible cracks and touch stops working often without realising why.

In general I think the screen is too important a component to just ignore it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] rmn6:
Yes, people do have a legit problem and you don't have to go out of your way to find it, just attempt to use the device as it was intended.

For you to compare a lack of storage (which hopefully you were intelligent enough to notice when you purchased it) to a defective screen is complete Idiocracy.

Do I expect perfection? No. Do I expect the screen to respond at least as well as my first generation Nexus 7? Absolutely.

Back on topic: If you want a screen that responds like a Walmart $59 tablet its a no brainer get the Nexus.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Jersey846:
I recently received my Nexus 7 for Christmas. My only other tablet was a first generation Kindle Fire. I requested the Nexus 7 because of its Android updates, price, and specs. It offered me everything I was looking for and I did my research, trust me. I am not a specs fanatic by any means, but the Nexus 7 runs buttery smooth for everything I do. I couldn't be happier. I was not interested in another round of Amazon's version of Android. While the HDX may be a beast specs wise, I didn't want to put up the effort to root, unlock, and custom mod. I enjoy that to extent as my Kindle is currently running KitKat and finally working decent for its age, but I wanted a strong tablet without the hassle and the Nexus has brought that to me. And that's coming from an Amazon junkie. Absolutely love the Nexus.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] essdee:
For what it's worth, I haven't been able to reproduce any of the touch issues that I've read other people complaining about, regardless of whether I'm actually holding the tablet or not. I have noticed that the touchscreen seems to be slightly less sensitive than the one on my first gen Nexus 7, but it's never been a problem for me in actual use.

YAMTT shows all 10 touch points while my N7 is laying on my bed, and I can draw basically perfect squares and circles, even with multiple fingers at once. I could just be lucky though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] oadam11:
For me , the specs of the nexus 7 are fine for me. Everything I have used runs smoothly and for my uses (entertainment, and such) I do not need a faster spec device, since I do not game and dont demand a lot of CPU usage (if that makes sense). Also, one main reason I got the nexus 7 is for development because I love trying out different ROMs and just recently got into using different kernals. The development of any nonnexus device just can't compare to the development of a nexus device.

Just like it happened to me this morning. Nexus was next to me in bed, I tried to reply to a post in the forums, I was pressing the keys maybe two or three times before it would register - I realised what was happening, the same grounding issue again. So I plugged in the USB charger and the problem immediately went away, and was able to type properly. Up until this morning I had thought the issue would happen only with using three fingers and in a perfect 90 degree angles - not so, unfortunately.

Suffice to say this morning I put it back in the box and sent it back for a full refund, it is only one week's old.

I must also say that we have at home two other tablets, a Samsung 10.1 and a Pipo M7 Pro, 2 iPhones, and 3 Android Smartphones (Samsung Galaxy S3, Zopo ZP300, Samsung Galaxy Mini) - none of them devices suffer from anything like this problem - absolutely not. I am saying this because in some thread another person claimed that these screen problems are "normal" and can happen to any "electrical/electronic" device - well, no, this is not true.
