Mark, we had this before. It ain't going anywhere. Thing is OT is beyond point of return, regulars lost interest in it. You know it yourself, you contributed to that quite a bit too. Even you you waved a magic wand and returned everything (mod presence) like it was two years ago, you'd hardly see any people come back on a regular basis.

Look, ot is now exactly how xda wants it, apart from complaints from long standing ot users. Might as well leave it as is.

Although I think there is nothing worth looking at in there, apart from another extra silly post delete. Hence

As Flast said, many more lulz can be had in device forums nowadays where mods don't lurk but respond to reports, so you "can get away", for the lack of better wording, with a lot more. A lot.

Hence I think it serves no purpose and should be locked, but I had an answer to that already.
[Off-topic] Fallen Spartan:
I'll chime in once...... Well maybe more depending how thread goes. I do feel we should practice what we preach, no person is above the rules. If you see any mod breaking rules, including myself, please report them. Regarding memes, pictures, etc. I think they all have a time a place. When used right they can be a useful tool to highlight something, but they need to be used right....... and not to often. Regarding OT....... Never been a big fan personally, but it does serve a purpose. As for over moderation. Again, let us know if this happens. I'm not sure it does, but will gladly be proven wrong.

Ok, this seems to have become an extension of the requests to mods /admins thread which I didn't want.

This isn't a rage quit as many of you have assumed from the posts, if this was then I wouldn't have posted the way I have. My reason is simple, I can't promote moderators that I don't respect. OK this is the sticky issue, there's quite a few that I do respect a lot hence the various pm's these weeks. The sticky bit comes from not being sure who I don't respect as things are dealt with too internally and people don't know who deleted what and their reason if any (benchmark post and quote as prime example) . It would be easy to say this mod talks to people this way and that mod does this that and the other, truth is I can't promote the work of the mods as a whole unless I respect all of them it's that simple.

I see every single post that has been deleted and know who did it....but frankly, I believe we have larger fish to fry that the benchmark post.

Let's face it, OT has changed and it can only move forward. Not in such way that most people will agree on, but forward non the less.

Ladies and gais....this forum now has a good group of Mods that will be able to take care of almost anything that comes up, along with [MENTION=1079681]crachel[/MENTION] .

If some of you are unhappy or have any complains about what you believe is wrongdoing from a Mod...PM [MENTION=1079681]crachel[/MENTION] or any member of the Moderator Committee. They will help you!

I for one completely understand where some of your concerns come form as I was practically raised here, in this very OT forum :rolleyes::cowboy:

I propose to change the OP to another member based on suggestions from the current OP. That person needs to be responsible of updating this here thread and make sure LULZ are being had!! [MENTION=4665306]jugg1es[/MENTION] .....don't become a stranger, come and visit often;)

I also propose not to ever use this here thread for complains or rants about Mods...use the avenues suggested above, please.

Last but not least...to the current Mod team I say this...take care of this here bunch, they are some of the coolest peeps I've ever met....including you, [MENTION=1365588]hussam66[/MENTION]6 ....I don't care what [MENTION=4342879]flastnoles11[/MENTION] says about you, you are cool!! :silly::highfive:

Be well OT peeps....everything will be alright, you'll see! :victory::cyclops:

PM any FSM in order to switch OP once a decision has been reached, please.

[Off-topic] husam666:
[MENTION=1707123]M_T_M[/MENTION] Thanks I guess.

Anyway, you with a few others who I can only contact through XDA are the reason why I didn't quit yet (even though I'm still thinking about it seriously), I think the problem with OT was the new mods who don't know how things go here, then they come closing threads that were going for years and doing what's written above in other posts. I don't know what happens behind the scene with you guys, but I understand that you're going through a lot. What I really don't get though is why would a thread be closed and posts deleted just because someone's name was mentioned, I mean it's not the middle ages any more. OT got out of control more than once (I know because I was one of those who let it happen) and I guess this is why things are now what they have become. I'm not trying to take sides, and I'm trying to be as neutral as possible, what I think that in this argument both sides are right and wrong. I think it's about time to put the past behind and try to focus on living in harmony instead of trying to push each other's buttons. Most of us are adults here, it's about time we start acting our ages and stop acting based on feelings.

just my 2 cents.

Have a nice day.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmenchion:
I've got a telus n2 currently running 4.3 which I hate btw. I flashed 4.1.1 radio due to mobile network drops. So that's fixed! But I'm trying to flash a new kernel as it is using 80 percent of my battery. I've tried clean install 3 times. It also drains the battery in few hrs. The rom is stock. So my problem is wherever I flash a kernel my phone soft bricks. Won't go past main screen with galaxy note 2. It will just go black screen. I've tried flashing in twrp(with the flashable file) and tried Odin. There is something I'm not doing out doing wrong. Format cache and delvik also. Any ideas? And I am trying 4.3 and 4.4 kernels.

Any ideas?

Hi Guys I need some help in adding some apps to Touchwiz ROM V3.

Just wanted to ask if its possible to do via this tutorial I found here :

http://tech.firstpost.com/news-analysis/how-to-add-or-remove-apps-from-a-custom-rom-101986.html

Or if someone can suggest me something

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mito57:
I have an ATT S3 SGH-I747. Some time ago I flashed the leaked 4.3 rooted with no KNOX.

No problems with it, but I want to get back to stock to get OTA updates in the future.

So far, it looks like I have to:

1-Run triangle away to reset counter

2-Flash the stock ROM.

3-Factory reset.

Is this good enough? Some extra step I have to do because of the insecure kernel I have?

I've been doing a lot of research and I'm still afraid to brick my phone if I try to do it.

If the above process is OK, which ROM should I flash? Just the original that came with the phone? I believe it was 4.0.4. Can I flash something newer?

I'll appreciate any help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Please check your phone's settings for your firmware version and let's know what you have under Android version, baseband version and build number. I expect the Android version should be 4.3, baseband I747UCUEMJB and build number ...MJ2 but please confirm all the same.

If the above details are correct, then you should be able to safely Odin to ver. 4.1.1. You do not need to run Triangle Away to flash a stock ROM but the other 2 steps are spot on. Once you are on stock 4.1.1, you can get an OTA update to the latest version. I would also advise you free unlock your phone before upgrading, if not done already, as you can only free unlock on 4.1.1. Before proceeding, however, please check and confirm your phone's current firmware settings. A different route may be required if you already have the 4.3 MJB bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mito57:
Thanks a lot for your help.

This is what I have:

Android Version: 4.3

Baseband Version: I747UCUEMJ2

Kernel Version: 3.0.31-1804024

Build Number: JSS15J.I747UCUEMJ2

SELinux status: permissive

That's all I can see in "About Device" I hope that's what you need.

You say no need to run Triangle Away. I still would like to reset the counter. Any risk in doing it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Yes, that's precisely the info I need. You don't have the 4.3 bootloader yet so you should be able to safely Odin back to 4.1.1. There is no risk in resetting your flash counter. Usually, however, flashing a complete stock image should reset the flash counter. The only thing that can't be reset, once tripped, is your warranty bit. If your flash counter doesn't reset to zero, you can run Triangle Away. You can go to sammobile.com and download the Odin flashable 4.1.1 file (i747UCDLK3). Also download Odin from the thread below and then use it flash the UCDLK3 tar file. When you've successfully done this, please remember to free unlock your phone (if not done already) prior to taking any OTA updates.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1722686
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mito57:
Just an update. I run Triangle away and now the counter is on zero and the status is showing "official". I didn't expect that. I'm thinking in just wait until the 4.4 update is released (assuming it does) and take my chances with Kies to make it.

If it does not work I still have the option to flash to 4.1 and do it the other way.

I believe it won't update with the regular OTA in it's current state because I have CWM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
OTA is hardly likely to work if the phone is not in (complete) stock state. The good thing, however, is that when Kit-Kat (and other future upgrade) is eventually rolled out for this device, the good guys in the development community can be trusted to ensure a manual update option is available.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lauchrecords:
Hey guys whatsup,

one question,

people are going hard with porting miui from chinese devices

but wouldnt it be easiest to just take

the rom framework from yuga, lay a honami cm/aospa base underneath

and make it stick?

im really excited about the progress

but isnt there a faster way?

cheers
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B1nny:
As far as I know are people trying to port over MIUI from the Nexus 5, which is actually very similar to the Xperia Z1 in regard to the things that really matter, porting-wise. (think of things like the chipset, screen resolution, screen-size (not a whole lot but still))

Also bare in mind that it's harder to port closed-source ROMs like MIUI than you probably think. Another thing is that there aren't a whole lot of developers for the Xperia Z1.

I'm pretty sure somebody will eventually make it work though, if you feel like helping you can try to mess around with some files yourself. Remember that you can always flash a stock ROM again using flashtool, unless you manage to f*ck up the boot-loader, which is very hard to do by flashing ROMs, if not impossible.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazelinelee:
Because I love my new Nexus 5 so much, I "had" to go swimming with it for about 10 mins until I *realized* it's not water-proof. :silly:

Anyway, I opened it up and did my best to save it. And it boots up and functions again. :victory: However, there are three sequels:

1. LCD display shows water streaks in the background and the contrast is bad but can still see;

2. The vertical center line of the touch sensor doesn't seem to work; Elsewhere works fine;

3. Very weak WiFi reception and hardly be able to connect to any wifi network unless it's in the proximity of the router.

The first two problems can be "easily" fixed by replacing a new digitizer/screen assembly. But the #3 is the most critical issue. If it's not fixable, this phone is pretty much useless to me.

I've read that many people complained about the weak wifi issue on Nexus 5. But mine was very good and always had strong signal before it went swimming. I've tried cleaning up the WiFi/BT circuits and even made sure to have the WiFi/BT antenna on the back cover to have good contact with the contact pin on the main board. But still got weak reception.

Has anyone had similar issue and how to fix weak wifi reception problem? Or where can I get it fixed?

Thanks a bunch!

So anybody here want to share what's the most stable custom kitkat 4.4.2 your using now, with less bug and fast.

now im trying dr ketan V7 ROM... still in the process of flashing it... will share the result after i done :)

Nice rom... Stable and fast... Still a few bug here and there but all minor and easy to fix...

So share the rom that you use here... In term of stability and speed :)

Got custom battery aswell
[Galaxy Note II General] ipsuvedi:
1. If you want a rom with All In One S5 N3 S4 N2 apps and various tweaks then Tamirda's PhoeniX V18.5/18.8 is best option...you will not maiss anything there

2. If you want Stock N3+N2 then Dr Ketans rom is best

3. If you want N2+S5 only then MrLuong' s rom is best and themed (it has great battery life because of lite ver. and black theme)

4. If you want other than this then try DN3 or Phantom

I am CURRENTLY using PhoeniX and its greatest!
[Galaxy Note II General] nemesis.sisemen:

Cyanogen Mod is definitely not pure android. There are many many additional features not present in AOSP. Also it has a custom kernel which sets it apart even more. Nice try :)

[Galaxy Note II General] benchmx:
As someone metioned here. All depends on whta you want in your phone. All ROMs here are great and I have tested few of them. For me I look for the lightest RAM consuming ROM with Aircommand . I can say Phantom and X-Tream are the best for what I want.
[Galaxy Note II General] pqweb:
Phantom rom have note 3 apps like snote etc? How about stability?
[Galaxy Note II General] TheATHEiST:
This type of question/topic is not allowed. There is no such thing as best or most stable.

When I wipe data and factory reset i get no sort of confirmation that it has completed, i go on to wiping cache and dalvik cache and then get to the step of installing the cm9 zip and i get an error.

E:Error in /emmc/cm-9.1.0-galaxys2.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted.

When i reboot the phone after this error, none of my user data is gone, its as if the factory reset did not occur at all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] invaderyugi:
6320

To be completely honest, I have no idea what would cause this error. It shouldnt let you select anything else until the wipe is done. Ive been using the SXTP_Agat recovery (based on CWM) and its worked perfectly for over 20 wipes/flashes. I have it attached. It is a .tar file so just flash it thru odin and it should be there. Let me know if it doesnt work or you have any other issues.

Also, I found an unofficial port of Cyanogenmod 10.1 somewhere a while back. Ill try to find the link and ill update this post to include it.

Good luck!

--Edit-- Heres that link to cyanogenmod 10.1

I have been a Treo 650 user with cingular for 18 months now and have been happy with it. I have experimented with lots of the software available for download and enjoyed that a lot to. I have been looking for another phone and I just found a post by treonaut on the treo web site all about the MDA. The post was very good and has my attention but still I am very new to this MDA phone and am looking for some info. On the Cingular web site i found the model 8125 and am very interested in that cell. I think the 8125 is an MDA type cell, not sure if the MDA is a particular model or a catagory type cell. Next, as with the Treo 650 there is tons of software downloads to play with and experiment. Is there any software out to do the same with for these MDA cells? In particular the 8125? If so, ware do I find it all? I have been useing the xWeather program for my Treo and would hate to have to give it up along with many other programs that I use on my Treo. Next, are the sim cards the same? Can i use one from my 650 in the 8125 type MDA cell? OK, no more questions for now, I will stop here. I would really like to buy the 8125 after reading what treonaut had to say but will not jump. Thanks for any help offered ...
[General Topics] treo...not!:
To answer your questions:

1. Cingular 8125=Tmobile MDA=HTC Wizard with each having very minor modifications.

2. Tons of software are also available for download for the 8125. All that stuff you saw in my review I did with built-in software or with freebies. I also have a program that puts the weather data on my Today page. To date, I have not bought a single WM5 program. Search xda-developers in the Wizard section. Also read the very good MDA and 8125 faqs over at howardforums.com. In general any program designed for Windows Mobile 5 (WM5) and the ARM processor should work with this series of devices. So do a google search for goodies.

3. Sims remain the same. I sometimes swap sims between the MDA and the 650 without a problem.

4. Check out Amazon.com for better pricing on the 8125/MDA.
[General Topics] zac123:
Thanks very much for the info. I will check it out and most likely get the 8125 soon.. I want to make sure I know ware to get all the extra programs and understand how to install them. I have no clue about what cables i will need to hook it to my notebook and what software i will need to use to install things. The Treo is easy to install things with the Palm one quick install program so I need to find out what to use to do these things yet. Thanks again.
