[General Questions and Answers] oralover2006:
I am going to ask very basic question regarding ROM in Android Device.

Searched for Android Devices and found as below (different devices):

1) Memory - 1 GB RAM, 4 GB ROM

2) Memory - 1 GB RAM, 8 GB ROM

3) Memory - 1 GB RAM, 16 GB ROM

because of ROM size, prices are different from one another.

Is it just the normal internal memory which they are labeling as ROM, or does it have a different purpose altogether. Because once phone is up and running the OS is loaded in RAM and not ROM.

If OS is installed in ROM, it may occupy 1 or 2 GB, what is the use of remaining space.

1) user can install app of his/her choice

2) app data storage

3) cache / delvik cache

3) anything else

if someone purchase with Memory - 512 MB RAM, 4 GB ROM, what approx Internal Storage he/she will have to install apps?

I would appreciate your help and response.

Regards.

I was reading in the forum about a company out of Texas that can take your phone back to stock with unlocked bootloader. I even emailed them for answers to a couple of questions that I had and they answered me back with what I needed. I am now ready to send my phone out to be fixed. Now I lost the email and for the life of me can not find that post again. If anybody knows where this imformation is, please post it here for me or give me the link.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] morbeious:
Why would you pay to go back to stock if you rooted it, why not just reload the stock ROM?

Because they will go back to 4.1.1 which is an unlocked bootloader...THEN you can install ANY compatible rom without using safestrap

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BluGuy:
Because if you took the 4.3 or higher Ota or have a phone pre-installed with it, then you can't revert back to an older version of Android where the bootloader can be unlocked. This service is supposed to be able to do that with the hardware they have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikespe:
Seems kind of crazy that if you ARE on a forum like this AND own this phone you don't know this...it is ALL over the forum about Knox & 4.3. I heard the "other" phone is on sale if you decide to get one! ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Well I have my phone back and as advertised, they took my phone back to 4.1.2 with the VRAMC3 bootloader which is as we all know, unlocked. I'll tell you that it was worth every penny. And it wasn't the "lazy way out". It was the only way out. There is no way to unlock the updated bootloader, which you would know by reading the threads for this phone. And by the way, here, or XDA forums, is where I found the information to even do this. I have my unlocked phone back and am happily flashing again.

I use the Orange Today screen, as it seems to have all the menus for the scroll wheel. I would really like to add other things to the today screen and have tried to use SPB plus, but it seems that I can either have the Orange today screen or the SPB plus desktop, not both.

What I really want is a customisable scroll wheel menu list and today screen elememnts (weather, battery life etc) all together.

Can someone suggest how I do this or what programmes I should be investing in?

I also have a SPV 3100 and I got rid of the Orange customisation immediatly and installed SPB pocket Plus, SPB Diary, SPB Weather which is all usable with the scroll wheel. This makes the device much more effective than the Wizard.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
I have a KFHD 7" (2012 model), it's rooted, the latest TWRP is installed and I'm currently running Kinology. From time to time it seems to be unnecessarily freezing and overheating (this used to happen for a long time now, but it doesn't seem to affect its performance from what I've seen) and I'm thinking of trying something new since it's already acting up.

I am currently using the latest Kinology, after I updated it to the latest version the freezing seemed to reduce visibly, but I still want to change the ROM. I was between PAC-MAN (http://forum.pac-rom.com/Thread-4-4-PAC-man-For-the-Kindle-Fire-HD-7) and CM11 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2543455).

I was going to go for PAC-MAN but I'm having some issues figuring out which the latest stable version is, since they say they have updated to 4.4 but in their downloads I can't find it in the folders with the stables. I've asked many times in their site and their thread about KFHD here in xda but I haven't received an answer yet. I could just go for CM but I have some questions about it...

So what I need the rom I'll choose to do is:

run the kindle reading app normally (I don't care about the carusel, I just want normal access to my mobi files

run games ok

not freeze for no reason (I mean, the main purpose of flashing something new is to make my tablet run faster not slower)

have the facebook messenger work properly (since I installed kinology, unless I have "chat heads" manually opened and left to run, I get no notifications about new messages)

have the wifi and bluetooth working

So I need people who have CM or PAC-MAN to tell me if either of these roms has these features. Oh, also, I've seen there's some feature they call "OTA". What is that? I think when I rooted my kindle I had to make sure to disable those so that it wouldn't get randomly updated and undo my root? If someone could explain that to me I'd be grateful!

Oh and one more thing. With custom roms such as those two, are amazon's apps installed and running in the background for no reason just like they do if you have the stock rom, or are they disabled/uninstalled...?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
With custom roms there is no such thing as Amazon apps. I suggest CM because of its reputation and support. But PAC is not bad.

OTA is Over the Air upate. If you receive an OTA in a custom rom,there is no reason for you to lose root.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
Ok, so if I want some of Amazon's apps all I have to do is download them from the appstore, right? (So relieved, I only ever used the reading app). So if it PAC has OTA, even if I install an older version (like 3.2 that I've found with certainty), it can install the latest on its own without me messing any more with the 2nd bootloader? I was hoping to try PAC before CM and to use CM only if PAC presents more issues than I can handle...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
I seriously recommend CM. Even if you get any issues,the CM team will fix it MUCH faster than PAC. As for the Amazon Apps,I don't think all of them will be on the Play Store. But the Kindle reading app will.(I used it before)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
Hmmm, then I might try CM11 today. It's true that in PAC they probably don't update too often, they don't even seem to check if people make questions or have issues too often. I've asked about which version to download a bunch of times in many different threads that they've made, and it's been 3 weeks and I'm still waiting for an answer.

One last thing. Do most games run alright in CM or are there compatibly issues? Oh, and something more. Does the playstore see the device as a kindle or as something else?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
Yep. I enjoyed Riptide GP 2. And I don't know about the latest nightly,but Hashcode's last unofficial build had the build prop set to recognise the device as an Amazon Kindle Fire HD.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
Thank you so much for asking all my annoying questions! I sat down last night and flashed CM, set up everything and so far it's running smoothly.

It started acting crazy after the last OTA that I thought I had shut off. Anyway, I re-rooted it, installed twrp 2.7.0.0, and then flashed it with cm-11-20140414-UNOFFICIAL-tate. Everything went smoothly and seems to work great. It also seems much faster now. Once I got all my account stuff setup, I did an update that it showed as being a stable version. I am now running cm-11-20140609-SNAPSHOT-M7. All my kindle books load up and I can read them on the device or cloud and was also able to find almost all of the games that I had before on my Kindle. It just seems so much nicer and faster now!
