[Android General] GermainZ:
You received no help because your question doesn't have an actual answer, or rather: every answer is equally valid as it's a highly subjective question, and the answer depends on each user. Besides, it's open ended (you're asking for *every* single app category out there) and shows a lack of research from your part.

About your rant on that spreadsheet, where you basically say that people pretending there's no "best" don't understand the meaning of "best"... Perhaps you should revise your definition first.

All that is superlative, and subjective. How do you define that? Obviously it depends on what each user wants. You could say "if an app can do everything, then it's the best!" - but what if it lacks speed? Or security? Or something else? There's always a trade-off, one app cannot be suitable for everyone.

Your list is nice, but it's for you. Other people will disagree. I'd actually recommend discussing those apps your like in this thread, for example, if you want to.

With all that in mind, and considering your question is open ended, I'll try to give you what you need to answer your question yourself (because no one else can.)

You can find a list of launchers here (a quick Google search showed me that.) Obviously, some newer launchers may be missing since new launchers come out often (you can contact the OP if you find any.) I can't help you about "the rest of the other kinds of apps" because I don't know what those are.

If you have something more specific in mind (*what* *you* want app X to do, no "what is the best X,") do ask and give the necessary information and someone will help you out if they know.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tastypotato:
Hey all,

I was having a ton of trouble finding a ROM that would run properly on my Note so I finally found a way to get a completely stock version of AT&T's software back on the phone.

It was running great until a couple days ago, nothing changed on the phone to my knowledge, but now I'm getting errors left and right. Errors say exactly: "Unfortunately, the process com.google process.gapps has stopped" and then you hit okay and it just goes away. Happens totally randomly, and all of the Google applications that I have on the phone work fine.

A factory reset of the phone didn't resolve it either - it just seems like something just finally snapped in the phone. :/

Here's a snapshot (Sorry for the potato picture - it was sent over MMS) of the Android version and other info: http://i.imgur.com/9pEMyXw.jpg
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
2 options at this point from information

1. Reflash rom......wipe, wipe, wipe, make sure your process is clean.

Or

2. Go into settings

App manager

Playstore

Force close

Clear cache

Clear data

Back out

Restart playstore

It will start right back up like normal. If anything is missing, it will tell you. If nothing comes up and no more closing, your fixed.

Hope this helps

I have a 2 month old original battery in my note. I noticed screen flickering a week ago which is a sure sign the battery is past its prime.

Still, some questions:

Have you dropped this phone?

Are you still running stock android? root?

Did you overclock / undervolt anything?

How often is this happening?

Is the phone hot when this happens?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pavanvvs:

Personally, my next step would be opening it up, remove all the dust(if any) and check all connections.

If that does not help, you have a problem.

If all fails, consider maybe overvolting and/or underclocking.?

@ahsank128

Great to see more guys are making animations and MODs.

If I may suggest something.

Make it smoother, use more png's to do that.

You have tutorials (check in mine signature) and you'll find there YouTube link for nice programs for bootanimation creator.

You can easily transform any video to bootanimation and have great, smooth animation.

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------

And yeah...

For installing...

Rename that zip to bootanimation.zip and copy it to system folder.

Change permissions to 0644 (using root browser) and move it to system (system/media) say "yes" to overwrite.

Restart device and enjoy ;)
[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Deleted member 5494300:

[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] Deleted member 5494300:
Alright, start by downloading ROOTBROWSER app [play store], and allow it superuser permissions

next you go into system>media here you will find bootanimation.zip this is the stock bootanimation, copy and paste into a safe place perhaps your external sd, somewhere you can remember.

next you copy the zip that i provided... take it into the same place... system>media DELETE you stock bootanimation.zip and paste fintest.zip

you can paste it as fintest, then delete stock, then rename as well.

next rename fintest.zip to bootanimation.zip and then change permissions (long press and permissions in the menu) change to RW-R--R--

you should be set. be sure to post whether you are successful in your endeavors or not

Hello everyone,

Couple of weeks ago I had a problem with soft-bricking my phone (thanks to the help on here I managed to fix it) But I now want to return my phone to stock. (I want to unlock the sim so I can use any sim card, and it seems the only way to do that is by having the phone in stock condition).

I have tried several RRU's but they always come up with an unknown error (155 I think) I have also managed to relock my bootloader (but that doesn't seem to help. Here are my phones details:

INFOsecurity: on

INFObuild-mode: SHIP

INFOboot-mode: FASTBOOT

INFOcommitno-bootloader: None

INFOhbootpreupdate: 2

all: Done!

So where do I start? I've lost the original backups of the phone and although I made a backup of the original rom I'm not sure I backed-up the right thing! (last time I tried to use it, it bricked the phone)

I've tried this RRU RUU_M7_UL_JB43_SENSE50_MR_TMOUS_3.24.531.3_Radio_4A.21.3263.03_10.38m.1157.04_release_336982_signed_2(2)

Thank you for your help. I really want to use this phone but I can't seem to get past this sim lock! :(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Ruu M7....dude thats a HTC ONE ruu. Go to the general section and look for the nandroid backup collection thread. Get the one matching your main number and READ the OP carefully and completely. It's all written there what to do

When you restore a nandroid backup you flash the recovery.img and the boot.img from the nand folder. That way you always restore the nand with the correct recovery

and thank you very much, its highly appreciated !
[HTC One X] cueballkrill:
Totally stumped.

I have absolutely no idea on what I am doing wrong with sim unlocking (never had a problem before ever)

I've returned the phone to stock (as far as I am aware) got the sim code directly from t-mobile/ee and yet the phone still wont unlock the sim.

Is there anything anyone can think of that I have missed (in terms of getting this phone back to 100% stock?) Could it be related to fastboot/cwm should I remove them and relock the phone as well? Will that help?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
If you have stock rom, kernel and recovery it should unlock fine. But i have seen many of these reports lately that the phone just don't accept the code.

Maybe going to the carrier shop can help you ?
[HTC One X] cueballkrill:
I'm probably going to end up sending it to t-mobile. However, if they wanted to check they will see that I have fastboot on the phone.... Isn't that a dead give away that the phone has been rooted?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
They will always know it's been messed with because the bootloader says relocked (or still unlocked)

But unlocking does not necessarily means no warranty or service.
[HTC One X] cueballkrill:
Right.... thanks for all your help.

I guess I will bite the bullet, send it to t-mobile/ee and see what happens.

Thanks for all of your help.

Follow the instructions and have a break for kit Kat.

Also good news is if you don't like to be on 4.4.2 and want to go back you can go back from the 4.4.2 to 4.3 again by just downloading the Carrier specific official Odin flash ROM. This ROM is down gradable.

I installed this sucessfully on my SM-N900W8, but with problems

Hi everyone, I installed this method on my SM-N900W8 and have successfully updated to 4.4.2 KitKat, but there were some problems:

1- My LTE doesn't work, so I've had to put up with slow data

2- My External SDHC card (64GB Sandisk) wasn't compatible for files such as music, videos, etc.

I installed 4.4.2 right when this thread was posted about a month ago and figured that since the official KitKat update was coming soon, I didn't think I'd have to put up with it for that long, but it's been a while and still we have no KitKat.

I also read that once you flash 4.4 KitKat, you cannot go back to 4.3, is that true with this method, since the 4.3 Kernel is still the same?

I would really appreciate if someone could help me out here!

(In the meantime, I'm going to try my luck with this new 4.4.2 custom ROM that was released for the SM-N900W8: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2648843) (I believe shant0nu here in this thread authored this one!)
