[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Svenjamin:
My apologies if (A. this is a question that gets asked constantly) or (B. this is the wrong place to ask), first of all. I googled around, and did a forum search, but the results were flooded with questions about flashing roms, and I didn't find much recent relevant information. If this is the wrong place, my bad, but I didnt think this was a device-specific question, so I thought this might be the place.

Anyway, I'm on a Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition). I'm wondering if there is any semi-reliable way of viewing flash video online. I watch stuff on sides like vidxden, gorillavid, etc fairly often. When I try to watch them in, for example, Dolphin Browser (I have flash installed, for what it's worth), they will start to play, then the video eventually catches up to the buffer point. The video pauses, buffers a little, starts again, catches up, stops again, etc. To make matters worse, if the video is kept paused, it will buffer to a certain point, then seemingly stop buffering completely. Finally, seemingly at random the video playback bar will fill up (as if the video is completely buffered), but the video will act as though it is still buffering, except that it won't start playing again. In this state, the video continues to "buffer" even if you drag the scrubber back, forward, anywhere.

My question is: Is this par for the course, or is there a usable way of watching flash videos without it being unbearably choppy, stop and start, etc?

Thanks all, in advance!

I just installed the summiters cingular rom onto my tmobile mda. It was his rom 8125 users: custom AKU 2.2 ROM now available.

I dont notice any reception difference really. In fact i really dont notice anything besides the fact that its cingular logo and all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] summiter:
It might, it might not. It all depends on whether anything was changed. Version numbers on radio ROMs can be incremented but that doesn't mean any functional changes were made.

If you watch the forums enough, you'll get a sense of which radio ROMs are working best for folks.

I haven't seen any complaints about the radio in the 2.17 ROMs, and even 2.25 (although 2.25 as a whole is proving quite squirrelly)

my-blue-snog-box's unofficial AOKP Nightlies for Nexus 5 (hammerhead)

I started compiling AOKP nightlies from source recently. This project started as a way for me to learn about compiling from source and to grab the latest commits for myself. I figured that if I'm using the resources to compile nightly builds, I might as well share them. Currently, everything is true to the latest AOKP source code.

I would really appreciate any feedback once you've flashed the ROM!

Check out the source code.

You can find the changelog on AOKP's Gerrit

PS: If you see a merged commit on AOKP's Gerrit that you've really been waiting for, don't hesitate to PM me and ask me to compile a fresh build. I have a lot going on in my life and I can't always follow commits as I would like, but most of the time it's fairly easy for me to start compiling even from a remote location.

Thanks to:

The AOKP Team for the Source code and all the awesome work they do
[MENTION=4803464]jabza[/MENTION] for all the help with Git and Repo
[MENTION=4918174]Red Devil[/MENTION] for his guide on Repo and manifests here

The shell script that I use to compile will send out a tweet the moment a new nightly build is available. Follow me on Twitter @MyBlueSnogBox for the latest updates.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] jabza:
Hey, [MENTION=5381171]my-blue-snog-box[/MENTION] , I'm doing more or less the same thing but for ParanoidAndroid. While I am not a huge AOKP guy myself, I figured I'd just let you know that I'm happy to help you with any questions you have or if you run into any issues. It looks like you've got things under control so far, but as you go on to cherry-pick new features or make some tweaks or whatever, I know it can be nice to have someone to ask questions to.

Anyways, I don't mean to derail your thread too much, I just wanted to say I'm here to help. Good luck! :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
Thanks a bunch! I will definitely be hitting you up in the near future. There are some things that I've been wanting to try but seem as if it'll take some trial-and-error, and so it would be great to be able to pick your brain.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] armyboy11b:

Think you would be able to add slim recents ?

Either way keep up the great work man will flash later when I'm off thanks !!

Are all the new translations included in the new build? Are they the latest commits? :)

Thank you very much dude ! :)

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
If the translations are merged into the official source, then yes. I fetch the source-code immediately before I compile a new build.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
The Translations arent included. Maybe you can take a look at gerrit and github of AOKP. The translation, in my case german, are absolutly new. From this or last day :D Would it be a problem to create a new build? :p Thank you very much!! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
Sorry about that! I was out to dinner with my fiancée, and she gets upset when I do geeky stuff instead of pay attention to her on date-night. I'm home now and will start the new build right away.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
You have nothing to apologize for :D It was just a question if you could do this :) If yes its awesome, if not its absolutly no problem! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
Huray! :victory: Going to flash thank you dude! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
Thank you its running good. Rom control is english still, but all seeable things like reboot menu etc are german thank you dude. Are the builds complete 100% aokp? or are they a in any way different? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
Currently, things are 100% AOKP. I started working on trying to cherrypick and merge a few things, but it's going to take time. If you have any requests, I can try my hand at it.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
There is a possibility to make the lockscreen transparent. But on other roms there is the possibilty to make it blurry transparent maybe you can try to cherry pick this. :) Just a suggestion :cyclops:

I wanted to compile roms myself too and after sometime i got the damn repo tool too work. It was just not working for some reason ....but the problem is i have dsl2000 so its hard to do load the source. After you downloaded the source first time, do you need to load it complete again if changes happens? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
Not necessarily, no. You don't need to fetch the whole source again. If you have questions or need help, why don't you hit me up on Hangouts? Check my signature to contact me.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
I've been messing with that for the past few days since [MENTION=4487510]armyboy11b[/MENTION] first requested it. It is proving rather difficult to merge into AOKP's source, but I'm going to keep trying as I find time.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
It is CAF. I am reading up on kernel development and playing around with things, but I don't have anything even close to releasing. ATM, I use (and would highly recommend) Chaos kernel.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] DarkFantasy6:
Oh its caf lol. Didnt know it :D

Hmm chaos has to many features. I want a kernel just to install and use like franco for example :) now i search for a lightweight kernel :)

I think you can try AOKPK which is compiled by Kecinzer. This seems that it is not CAF-based rom because I have used it with normal ElementalX kernel, but it is still an AOKP rom.

I'm Glad my tutorial helped you. :) Please do try to share whatever you learn during the maintenance of this ROM with all the other members of this forum in the form of guides/tutorials if you have the time :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] my-blue-snog-box:
Your guide was incredibly helpful and I really appreciate it. I'm working on a beginner's guide as I learn (it started as my own notes) that tries to take things a step further: it includes explaining what exactly the repo tool does with regards to Git, how to set remote upstreams, tracking remote branches, and merging cherry-picks. It's currently a WIP, but I'm hoping to clean it up and post it soon. Would you mind if I pick your brain and maybe have you take a look at it?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nav13eh:
I am new to this whole experience, and to this forum, so it may take me a bit extra to understand things at first. That being said, I do have experience rooting and installing custom ROMs on android devices, and understand what needs to be done in general terms in order to actually be successful.

A friend of mine posted about wanting to install a custom ROM on my S3 mini to this forum recently, but not much was accomplished other then the realization that I likely have a locked boot loader, and therefore have limited to no options. Although, I am aware of the ability to actually unlock the boot loader, but am unsure of how to do it, or if I even can on my model. So I pose the question, how do I unlock my boot loader so I can install a custom recovery, and then a custom ROM? I have been searching around for a while without much success and need the help of more experienced group of people.

I am fully aware of the dangers that arise when attempting to flash an unlocked boot loader, but if I come across a relatively safe method I want to try it.

Thanks in advance for any time you spend responding to me, I am very grateful for all your help.

Sorry forgot to say the model of the phone, it is SM-G730W8.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Let me clear up some stuff for you, and hopefully for all the others that come across this thread; there are 2 official versions of the "S3 mini" as far as I'm concerned. The GT-I8190 which includes its variants GT-I8190L and GT-I8190N, and your version the SM-G730W8. They have absolutely nothing in common, other then their names. They have a similar appearance, but they use different hardware, because of this anything created for the GT-I8190 will not be compatible with your phone and will screw up your phone (maybe even to the point of hard-bricking it where it will no longer work and beyond recovery, unless you send to Samsung or a service shop that can JTAG it back to life). As far as I know since your phone's bootloader is locked, you cannot install anything to it. I know that there might be a build of CWM Recovery floating around for your phone, you won't be able to install it until the bootloader gets unlocked, and so far no one has managed to unlock the bootloader.

By the way, most of the threads for your phone the SM-G730W8 and its variants SM-G730WA, etc seem to be in the Q&A section of the S3 Mini forums. The general forum discussion seems to be predominantly users with T599, T599V, T599N (like myself) who have similar hardware to the GT-I8190 to the point where we can use each other's sources with some modifications, but the ROMs/Recoveries/Kernels are not interchangeable.

I do know that root has been achieved (if I recall correctly) and beyond that, nothing else in terms of development can be done until the bootloader is unlocked. Search around the Q&A subforum, and you should see more threads pertaining to potential development.

I hope I explained this clear enough, I'm just worried that someone may come on here screw around with their phone and end up with a paperweight!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nav13eh:
I do thank you for making things a bit clearer for me to understand. I am very disappointed that they advertise these phones as being the "S3 Mini" when in fact they are a completely different version. I bought the phone with the understanding that is was a quick and modern little phone, and that I could install a custom ROM on it. It is a good piece of hardware, but I guess I should have researched deeper then I did into the whole situation. I assumed there would be a little bit ore consistency with the hardware.

I have achieve a root though, and with that there is a lot of things I can change that I wouldn't otherwise be able to. But unfortunately it's not the same as the true Vanilla Android I wanted to install. With some tweaking touchwiz is fine, but it has it's moments. I'll keep looking for something, but if I can't find anything, my time with this device may be limited. Within time, I may end up trading up to an S3 or something that is unlocked.

Well for the time being, look into debloating your system through Titanium Backup, and slap on a 3rd party launcher (nova launcher,etc)!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nav13eh:
I have Titanium installed, can you point me in the right direction for guides on what to remove?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Sadly there isn't one extremely particular to your phone, but be careful with this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2322375

See if any of these apps matches up with your phone. I highly recommend freezing them, over removing them, as you can revert it if anything goes wrong. If you have Polaris office apps, then you can delete that for sure, but other that freeze these apps and it should feel snappier and more fluid. I also highly recommend a third-party launcher, TouchWiz is downright horrible.

Had AT&T Chat push the Kit Kat update. I'm not rooted.

I've noticed when I'm using my GPS (High Accuracy), it drops out a lot. I didn't have this issue with 4.2.2. Actually, I _loved_ how consistently great the GPS was before the update.

Has anyone else experienced this and if so, have you been able to resolve it?

Thanks

Driving on the highway after the KK update, with a clear and unobstructed view of clear skies, this is the best I get...

There is most definitely something screwy with the GPS now. ?

Odd... here's mine in my house, phone is all stock with 4.4.2
[AT&T LG G2] daryelv:
Just to make sure... because I know it's easily overlooked...

Have you set the Mode to "High Accuracy" in Settings -> General Tab -> Location ? By default the KitKat update sets it to "Battery Saving" and GPS doesn't work too well on that (I play Ingress a lot).

-Daryel
[AT&T LG G2] vween:
Yep, it's on High Accuracy.

oddly enough, it has improved a lot. I don't believe it is as good as it was, but it is much better. Not sure why it would improve over time, though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimSmith94:
Since losing my Kingo root while going from JB to KK and no apparent way to go back or Kingo root 4.4, does anyone know if Sprint has a way to reload 4.3 Jelly Bean so I can start over? I can't stand not being rooted but I don't want to trigger Knox either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Epix4G:
With the bootloader locked and not being able to be downgraded .... Probably not they would just put you on nab ... We have the leak with engineering bootloader that would allow it but I can almost bet sprint wouldn't have that but in the rom development dept that would be in Kansas City .... stores are pretty much staffed with morons .... imagine Mr Mackey from South park ....." rooting is bad m'kay " .....

Most people who work in sprint stores just don't care enough about tech to read about the phones .... it's just a job to them

I am on NAB stock now but I have read that people have been able to go from NAB to NA4 with the engineering bootloader and then back to MJ4. I have the NA4 engineering tar with the pit and recovery files thanks to micmars. I have tried flashing it over stock OEM NAB with both the stock and the engineering bootloader several times, but it fails everytime. I get a pit file missing error if I don't include it, but I don't know how to add the recovery tar or if it is needed.

If you could provide the steps to accomplish this, I would really appreciate it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Epix4G:
I haven't seen where anyone had successfully done it that is the thing ... We were going from na4 back easily but nab is locked down ...are tout

You flashing the engineering boot loader first then booting into nab and then trying to go to na4

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JimSmith94:
Correct, I flashed the OEM NAB, the NAB engineering bootloader on top of it, and then tried to flash NA4 engineering on that. I have seen a few posts where people said it was possible to go from NAB->NA4 engineering->MJ4, but it took them a few tries. If it is in fact impossible I'll give up and wait for Kingo or someone to root NAB without tripping Knox. I'd just like confirmation one way or the other.
