As I understand it...

You're right. I believe it acts as a repository for applications or tweaks to be installed to 'personalise' a ROM after a hard reset. Good place for things like operator-specific settings...

Not everything present in the Extended ROM has to install following a hard reset... what is installed, and in what order, is controlled by the config.txt file. You could have other installation CABs in Extended ROM and just install them later, if you like (browse using Total Commander). Bear in mind also that not all applications can be installed automatically following a hard reset; if an installation requires user input, it can't be installed automatically, because I hear this will crash the installation. Also, I don't think you can choose where automatically-installed apps are put: I think they can go on the device only, not on the Storage Card. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!!

Yep... I don't think any of it is critical, after all ROMs have been released on xda-developers that are totally clean (empty extended ROM, no customisations). But it is useful especially for tweaks and operator-specific settings, etc.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ClassicalDonkey:
well i am building my own with just the T-mobile uk setting and 2 other cabs files that ring tones and tomtom (map on card). So these are installd when you do a hard reset, so i dont have to bother installing again! (still working on the reg to enter the strings for it to setup my gps pairing on its own)

But i have not do anything like this before, but sick of having to re do everything everytime i hard reset or do a new rom!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Dater:
mmm... i believe i also read somewhere, that accessing the internal memory is less energy consuming than accessing external storage cards...

but i am really not sure about that...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] infinite15:
I would post in the developer thread where I am having the problem but I don't have enough posts yet.

I'm attempting to install this ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2-tmob...-unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-t2885259?nocache=1

onto my SGH-T989 t-mobile. I'm getting an error saying that my radio is not new enough and the ROM won't install. I then went to the Radio thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1895400

to try and download the latest radio listed there, being the UVMC6 for the t-mobile, which would not download. So I tried the Telus TLMC4, which I don't know if that is a problem with the t-mobile phone, and the ROM still said the radio is not new enough.

I'm am guessing that I should install a jelly bean ROM, like Lightspeed to get a newer radio. But is that correct? Do the new ROMs have radios or does that need to be done separately?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] infinite15:
Turns out it was the clockworkmod version. Had to update it and that seems to be taking care of everything.

Though my wifi isn't working with any of the ROMs. I'm guessing I need to try the t-mobile RADIO instead. If I can find a copy of it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sTaLa:
I am almost in the same boat as you are.

I tried two 4.4.4 ROMS (CM11 and another one), but I received the same message about the radio. So I updated the radio to TLMC4 and the ROM install got passed the radio error. But then another error occurs, wich I do not understand.

Both 4.4.4 ROMS I tried got stock at the same spot on the install. So I ended up intalling 4.1.2 Ligthspeed. Works fine and is stable for now.

If you can give any input on how you successfully installed a 4.4.4 ROM, any help is appreciated!

I am with Koodo mobile by the way.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tuxx1337:
Which error are you getting? I'm same with Koodo, radio TLMC4 and CM11 from Sultanxda works fine.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hani88:
Hello

I have G900h no root running 4.4.2 with the latest available build (ANG3)

Every time I turn off the screen the music is cracking and keep that untill I turn on the screen again.. that's also happening while using the headphones

I tried many music player even I updated my phone to the latest firmware but I could not fix that issue

anyway I'm on root now

any solution??
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
It's because the phone is reducing the CPU speed when the screen is off. You could try a custom kernel to fix the problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hani88:
That's was not a smart idea from Samsung !!

can u give me a helpful custom kernel?

thank u
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
It is a smart idea actually...it saves battery when the screen is off. But yeah, it shouldn't happen when music is playing. I just noticed you have a G900H, the exynos one. There aren't any kernels for that model as far as I know...sorry.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hani88:
yea I was wrong.. although this power saving policy does not affect anything but music player.. viber calls for example work well while the screen is off

thank u so much
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hani88:
Solution !!

Well, I solve it :)

I was thinking about an app witch has an ability to use the CPU while the screen turned off without needing to use any custom kernel to change the cpu power saving policy, then I remembered "Acdisplay"

My App link (sent via MyAppSharer) - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.acdisplay

and It works like a charm :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] himineu:
The rom this excellent, but only two small things:

1 - How to remove the warning that the external SD in the upper left corner?

2 - In the automatic brightness never stabilizes, always updated, causing some visual discomfort?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
1. You would need to decompile the systemui and edit the smali code ;) I'll look at it for a future release.

2. Yes Asus broke it and I have no idea how to fix it. Stick with manual mode for now.
[Asus Transformer TF701] himineu:
Thanks for the quick response.

The rom [4.4.4] [Unofficial] AOKP TF701T had this problem solved the automatic brightness, do not know if this can help.

Unfortunately they are different source but I'll have a look.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jens Christensen:
Some time ago I converted my M7 to a Google Play Edition. However, I went back to the stock Sense ROM. I'm not sure why though I do remember the Settings menu and the dialer app in the GPE looking horrible.

Now I'm thinking of going GPE again in anticipation of Android L - but has Android L been confirmed for the M7?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LucaFesto:
Yes it' confirmed for gpe edition and sense version, the second one after 90 days from the release so the gpe after one or 2 weeks I think
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jens Christensen:
Thanks, think I'll switch back to GPE then :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinji257:
I'm going to switch back when the rom is released. Until then I'll stick with what I got now.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jens Christensen:
On second thought, I'm gonna wait for Android L to be released as well. I just remembered the butt ugly black settings menu and having to long press the quick settings to activate/deactivate and a couple of other things that drove me nuts when I had the GPE ROM installed :)
[Galaxy Tab S General] cpete47:
I loved my SM-T800, but the kind of love where you're willing to overlook little faults here and there (the small amounts of lag that people notice while others don't).

I switched over to the LTE version from Verizon a few days ago-- with the Snapdragon 800 SOC.

Lag is completely gone-- even in touchwiz (no I didn't sick with touchwiz, just wanted to confirm). Tapped Out plays perfectly. LTE reception is great. Scrolling through everything is so smooth!

$600 is expensive for any tablet; but through some lucky breaks, I paid around $350 for my non-LTE version, not including a free book cover that Best Buy threw in. I ended up selling the tablet for about $430, and I kept the cover! So net $530 for the LTE tab and cover.

If you're on the fence about this device because of some of the comments on here, I can tell you most of the complaints are rectified in the Sprint/ Verizon version.
[Galaxy Tab S General] golden422:
My experience exactly. Had the Wifi 10.5, and it sucked, frankly. The Verizon LTE version is awesome.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Apoxx:
Yeah that's what I was afraid of. They really gave the wifi version the shaft with their horrible exynos experiment.

I have a Galaxy S5 with the snapdragon and it's blazing fast, while my wifi Tab S is laggy and slow as hell.
[Galaxy Tab S General] CrashTestDroid:
No surprise there, Exynos lags behind the Snapdragon variant as usual. No pun intended.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pibach:
Sure it has snapdragon?

Most likely improvements are just because of some software update.
[Galaxy Tab S General] fletch33:
i have been waiting for the Verizon version for some time and got excited when i saw it available BUT then sad when i saw it was only the 16GB version which doesnt work for me. also didnt want white but could deal with that. hoping maybe a 32GB version at some point but doubtful
[Galaxy Tab S General] twiggums:

Anyone got a cpuz or something comparable screen shot?
[Galaxy Tab S General] rowihel2012:
Lte 8.4 with samsung cpu. Lag very much i will sell it and get my lg g pro2 back it is extreamly fast no lag
[Galaxy Tab S General] ibill1:
I purchased the wifi 16. Returned it for the 32. Got refunded for that one and purchased the Sprint version with snapdragon. It just seems to be smoother and faster than the previous wifi only tabs. Both of my wifi units just did weird things. Ex., I would press the home key and it would send me off to google or some place unknown to my home screen. If I kept pressing the home button I would eventually get there, never did figure that one out. My other ones lagged every now and then but this didn't really bother me, I'm a patient man. I just wanted mobile data, however infrequently I will use it, but I'm glad it is there.
[Galaxy Tab S General] kenkiller:
As stated many times, the Exynos SOC is really really bad.
[Galaxy Tab S General] evo481:
long story short, who ever has the opportunitiy of buying Verizon Tab S Snapdragon 800 should go towards that direction and not the Exynos one...thanks guys i was thinking of buying with Exynos in Europe but i see that it has problems, weird is that sites seem to bypass those problems rather easily
[Galaxy Tab S General] pibach:
Any evidence?

Most likely it is just software issue.

Anyway, I don't see any lag on my T705 Exynos tab.
[Galaxy Tab S General] LoVeRice:
Any development for the snapdragon version?

Hello,

My gf bought sgt pro 8,4 with this case

img.tvc-mall.com/uploads/details/KEYB-618A-1.jpg

(need to put http in front of it)

As we found out, keyboards don't work that well with the 4.4.2 android version nor the 8.4 gtp for that matter.

Do you have any advise ?

She'd like a keyboard case for it. Or a way to get it to work anyway?

Rather not install a custom rom with getting it rooted and whatnot. Didn't have good experience with that in the past with phones. Would that even be an option? Is there a simple way?

Would be very thankful if you guys could help me. These problems always give me a ton of stress and annoyance :(

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugly_duckling:
Okay from the top, have OPO that had paranoid 4.6 Beta 2 working just fine. Was playing with settings(dumb idea) and changed the runtime to ART like i have on multiple other phones just to try it out. Phone rebooted and upgraded all the apps like it should, but about 5 seconds after it booted, screen froze for a second and then it rebooted. Once it rebooted it was up for 5 seconds again and then rebooted again. thus started a continues reboot loop.

Using the five seconds i had i was able to race through settings and switch the runtime back to dalvik. this caused the normal reboot and fixing of apps however once it finished the boot process it began the reboot loop again and there was nothing i could do to stop it.

I booted to recovery and attempted to reflash the last update, that failed.

attempted to wipe cache and dalvik cache and that failed.

attempted factory data reset, that failed

NOW is when i made a mistake, on TWRP i checked system wipe as well as data and cache. Wiped everything.

So, phone was then entirely devoid of OS which is a slight problem. I was able to get into fastboot however and flash cm11s which i figured would fix it, false. Now when it boots the system ui crashes over and over continuously and it wont become stable. Went back to recovery but my twrp was gone and i just had cyanogenmod simple recovery. attempted to get to fastboot mode but its apparently nonexistent, i tried every combination of commands possible to get there but cant. so now im stuck with an unusable OS and a useless recovery and no way to get to fastboot mode that im at least aware of... if there are any other details that could help feel free to help, ill post pictures once i figure out a way to do that.

please, for the love of God, help me.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
If you gold the power button for about 15 seconds then it should turn off. Then hold volume up and then press and hold power while still holding volume up for a few seconds and it should boot fastboot mode. Try erasing userdata from there to see if you can recover from the crashing.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugly_duckling:
I tried that a hundred times, the problem is once the screen turns off, if you keep holding vol up it never comes back on, its something i have never seen before and its exxtremely frustrating. Its like fastboot doesnt exist.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grenademasta:
I wiped out everything on my Oneplus two months ago by mistake. Then my phone wont boot up because it had nothing in it except the TWRP. I tried EVERYTHING, to load a Rom into the phone, but it didn't work. It goes through the motion of loading a Rom into your phone and when you are about to hit the 100% level, it says FAILED. It wants you to check the debugging which you can't because your phone wont boot up. Anyways, I purchased a micro usb flash drive and loaded up the Rom into flash drive from my comp's usb. Then I connected it to my phone from TWRP via the micro usb port. After it loaded up the Rom from the flash drive, it booted up. Hope that works.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugly_duckling:
hey i hadnt thought of that, thanks ill try that as soon as i can get my hands on a micro usb flash drive, will the device find it using cyanogenmod simple recovery? twrp is gone for some reason.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grenademasta:
Don't know if it will work without TWRP. I only see "Apply Update" then "Apply from ADB" and "Choose from internal storage". Hopefully the phone might recognize additional storage from the micro usb flash drive. Good luck.

The latest twrp supports mtp and you can use adb push to push the file to sdcard. Its really worth learning.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
You should let go of the power button after the device turns off. Then vol up+power when the phone is off. This is different than what I read for the device but it works for getting me in fastboot.

You realize that if you want help then you need to describe what happened so someone like myself can point you in the right direction. It's like going to the mechanic and saying, "hey, my car isn't working." At that point, it helps to describe the symptoms instead of just handing over the keys and saying, "I dunno. It's not doing something right, good luck figuring out what."
