[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khouryrt:
I know this sounds weird but I have an old Galaxy S3 that I'm giving to my mother. It will be her first smartphone so I really don't want to complicate my life or hers. I'm also giving my father my old Optimus 4X running ICS (also his first smartphone). I'll be teaching them how to use them, and providing support, so I'd rather have them on the same Android version instead of getting "why doesn't my phone do this?" all the time. Also, last I checked, the Samsung-based JB roms for the S3 were horribly slow.

The S3 is rooted, and I have been looking at the ROM section and all I can find are JB and KK roms, no ICS. Is there any lightweight Samsung ROM (because stock Android has some issues on the S3 and I can't deal with that) based on ICS that you would recommend?

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkened_Sky:
afaik ics roms on s3 do not have the sudden death fix, and therefor are not recommended. imagine what would happen if your mother's "new" phone goes off and never switches on again ;)

so better use a jb 4.3 rom if you want it to be stock. debloated they are quite fast.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayleo:
You can also get JB on your old LG device so that your mother isn't confused. It should work just fine, mainly if your parents aren't using their device at their full potential (like, if they only use it for texting, phone calls, etc, you can free up some space and get faster by uninstalling most of the unused apps). But I think too that JB has several fixes that are quite handy (like the sudden death fix).

[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] Munchkin86:
I wanted to import my old contacts from my German Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc. I was using a custom rom on the previous phone which supported traditional Chinese (Taiwan).

Now I have a lot of contacts with Chinese characters but when I import them from the internal storage into the address book (contacts) they are just displayed as ???.

Any possibilities to change that? That is most important for me!

I would like to use my Firmware and not update towards to an Asian firmware.

But how can i reset and flash back to StockRom? Not possible, once I start LGMobile Support Tool, it says I have the newest firmware and no possibility to flash back to StockRom.
[General Questions and Answers] noooneh:
Dear friends,

I want to buy i tablet for my mom, who is really a newbie

I thought of buying her a wifi tablet. Much cheaper and will do the trick for her. as she only uses the internet for some facebook and communication

The problem is: She needs to deal with contacts for using Whatsapp and Viber, even if she doesn't actually need a sim card or traditional dialing

It seems that I have to pay for a 3G tablet just for this matter, because i don't thing there's a way to make a wifi tablet deal - exactly - with numbers and contacts and sync with google contacts the same way a 3G tablet does.

So I wanted to ask this: is it really impossible to have phone and dialer the usual way on these devices (just like when you use a regular tablet with no SIM card)? Is it totally software oriented or it really can't do without a SIM card slot?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u03ekw:
softbricked my phone - samsung galaxy note 2 gt-n7100.

flashed slimkat rom (latest stable build may 2014) which worked. but then my camera didn't work so i thought i'd install the latest weekly which i heard fixed the camera bug... i didn't manage to do that because (i think) my cwm recovery thing wasnt up to date. so i flashed cwm recovery to 6.0.4.3 and thought hmm i'll try the 'install rom from zip' option on cwm recovery. i clicked it but nothing happened. i restarted the phone.

then got stuck in 'downloading, do not turn off target' whenever i reboot the phone - could not proceed.

i then used odin 3.09 and flashed clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.3 but...

stupidly, i disconnected the phone before odin said 'PASS'.

i disconnected the phone when odin said 'RESET'. apparently i had to

wait for 15minutes before disconnecting but in my inpatience i

disconnected after only 1 minute.

current problem - i am stuck at the samsung galaxy note ii gt-n7100

startup logo. it does not reboot (not a loop). i tried hard reset with

volume up/down/both together with menu and power buttons to try to

enter recovery or download mode but cannot. tried removing battery for

a few minutes and trying again, still stuck.

what should i do - is there a way to access my phone via usb for example, without going into download mode?

Hey guys,

I am trying to flash CM 11 M8 on my i9300 but I get stuck on the bootloader screen.

This is how it looks:

http : //i . imgur . com/qJAqYf2 . jpg

The only ROM that I could flash on this device is [Resurrection Edition] CheckROM EvoHD™ V4 [ODIN ROM] http : //tinyurl . com/mothcldto

It will boot but it's a 4.0.4 ROM and somehow can't be updated.

I'd prefer to install CM or at least the latest stock firmware.

Not even the stock ROM (I9300XXUGND2; Downloaded from samsung-updates.com) would boot.

Can anyone help me?

Recovery: CWM 6.0.4.3

Yes you can't it's because Kitkat has prevented write access to the SD card. You need to change the platform.xml and manually add the media write access or install the xposed HandleExternalStorage. Both methods require root.

I am not sure what I have done. I have a cingular 8125 G4. Downloaded the Risidioro g4 rom upgrade and my phone was not probably CID unlocked. Thought that did not matter cause I was able to install Mr Clean ROM couple of months back. I read some users in the forum who successfully upgraded from Mr Clean.

Everything went nice and smooth, the upgrade completed 100% and when it finished and rebooted it stopped at the blue, red screen and got stuck there. I did soft reset, hard reset but every time that blue, red screen comes up and gets stuck.

Has my phone become a "nice but dead piece of furniture" ? Oh! man..that would devastating!

Bigmonty - after getting into allsorts of issues after trying to upgrade my G4 to various 3.2 based ROMS, i also got to the bootloader screen with the USB indicator in the righthand corner.

This worked for me - take the battery out for an hour or so, put back in and soft reset. make sure you have a good charge. reboot the PC and plug in the device.

Now the only ROM i can recover a working device from isto use the latest ROM from the phone supplier. in my case from the club i-mate site (my device is SIM unlocked).

hope it helps
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] bigmonty:
Thanks AirWol. I was able to go back to Mr Clean successfully, which was a great relief. What I was doing wrong was, I was using the wrong update utility of Mr Clean. I should have used the one which was modified according to Risidioro guide for use in g4 chips. But I was using the original Mr Clean instead.

BTW, anybody knows whether it is possible to update g4 phones to the latest Risidioro or Cingular 2.26 ROMS? That is, can I modify according to Rididioro guide for use in g4? Anybody?

Probably I haven't learned enough lessons yet!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] newronaldo@7:
I was searching galaxy y forums to make my rom transparent and I got few guides but none of them worked :(

So I find a way my self (with help of my seniors) :laugh:

You need-->

* framework-res.apk of your rom

* apktool or any tool to recompile or decompile

* text editor like notepad++

* 7zip

* patience

* 5 minutes :p

Procedure-->

*Decompile framework-res.apk

* Open decompiled framework-res.apk folder and find res/values/styles.xml

* open it via notepad++

Note-->

styles.xml is the key file, it control all apps layout and look.

* In styles.xml search for <style name="Theme"> this is the main theme layout. all app uses this.

* Under <style name="Theme"> search for <item name="colorBackground">@color/background_dark</item>

*Now change this to <item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item>

* Now add this line <item name="windowIsTranslucent">true</item>

below this line--> <item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item> this line makes all system apps background to transparent.

Now you have to ways to set transparency and colour [Very Important part]

Use any one method you like

first method -->

Make a transparent image save it as png file. Make sure it has correct resolution(for galaxy y it's 240 x 320 )

Dont make full transparent, it looks odd

Save it and paste in drawable ldpi (Might be mdpi/hdpi for other devices)

Now open res/values/styles.xml and look for <item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark</item>

Change this to <item name="windowBackground">@drawable/image</item> *(here I save my png named with "image",You can save it with any name)

Save it and recompile with original signature and push it to your system/framework folder :laugh:

second method -->

open res/values/styles.xml and look for

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark</item>

Change this to <item name="windowBackground">#80ffffff</item> or any other color hex code as u want. First two digits control transparency.

Save it and recompile with Original Signature and push it to system/framework and done.

Important notes-->

1.

I use TickelMyAndroid tool to recompile and decompile..It's easy to use and there's an option to sign with original signature..If u don't use tickel my android then u need to do below steps

Compile framework-res.apk and open it with 7zip and delete resources file . open stock framework (unedited) with 7zip,, and open edited framework with 7zip.

drag and drop resources file and res folder from unedited to edited framework..

Thats it. Push it to system/framework.

2.If u push framework through mobile (root explorer or any root browser) then first change permission of framework-res.apk to r-w--r--r and then push

:)

3.This procedure for stock rom.. If you use any custom roms then in styles.xml the codes might be setted already to transparency.. Then you just need to skip those lines and leave them and do the Rest procedure
