[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] battznz:
Going back does mean stability. The way I look at it though is you can only put so much into a mini, but it will always be a mini, not a Ferrari. Lollipop seems to work OK but its stretching the capability of this tab. For me with minor tweaks its going OK. A goto software always on all my droids is Greenify. It kills all the apps lingering in the background and stops them from opening again unless I open them. Try it out, you need all the ram you can get outta these older tabs. With the paid version it also kills system apps like google play services which is a big ram hog. I guess the only way you'll make your mind up is give ICS a go for a few days then try LP and see what you think.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mast3rC22:
A lollipop ROM might be smoother, if there would be the "Performance" menu in the settings app (like CM12).

If anyone has got any cyanogenmod ROM, i suggest these settings:

CPU governor:

• Intellidemand/ondemand: The CPU will increase the frequency when needed. It's default in many kernels. I really suggest that, because the device will be very stable (and smooth) and the battery life will be quite good :good: ;

• Performance: The CPU frequency will be set to max setting;

• Powersave: The CPU frequency will be set to minimum setting.

CPU min frequency: 150mhz (max. 200mhz)

CPU max frequency: overclock to 1400Mhz (do not overclock to 1.5 or 1.6ghz, the cpu will freeze and might be damaged)

I/O scheduler: deadline

zRam: 18%

Resources clean: on

KSM: on

PS: Enable "Set on boot" to each menu.

Sorry for the worst english ever.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtiangha:
I like decatf's 5.1 AOSP rom. He put a lot of work into creating a wrapper for hwcomposer which does a better job translating some of the newer rendering apis to work with the ancient ics binary Nvidia video driver blobs. That's why videos and animations are much smoother on his rom than the alternatives and why you don't get that weird "lightning bolt" rendering effect that's been around since pershoot's cyanogen jelly bean roms. He also implemented an audio driver wrapper as well in the same vein. And if you use his TWRP version, you can format /cache and /data to use f2fs, which definitely helps with disk I/O. He even ported over Multirom so you can dual-boot, but alas, it doesn't boot Ice Cream Sandwich roms at the moment.

It's the best modern rom thus far for the original Tab 10.1. Other than proper modern and native Nvidia drivers updated for Lollipop, the only thing really holding back the original 10.1 at this point is the Tegra 2's lack of NEON support. But there's nothing decatf can do about that.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josehno1:
How can I unlock my bootloader of my Moto G XT1028?

I tried going to Motorola's website and asking for an unlock code but they said that a bootloader unlock code was available. The closest I could find to finding the unlock code was that there is a this Chinese guy where if you send him your imei and $45, apparently he will send you the unlock code. However the issue is that I bought this phone for like $30 on ebay and $45 is more than the actual phone. Is there a way to unlock my bootloader of my phone for free or getting root without unlocking bootloader?

If there isn't a way then at least is there a way for me to move game obb files over to one of these devices (link below) without root?

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-connector-Android-Devices-SDDD2-032G-G46/dp/B00RBGYGMO/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

I also found something about pie root but that didn't work for me
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATTACK:
IIRC, after 6 months of service you can request boot unlock from Verizon.

Hi all Gnex MAGURO owner.

I just want to share my new setup on my Gnex.

For all the gnex roms i flashed from 4.3 to 5.1, all i can say that some KK are more stable than LP. on my experience so far now on LP Zmod is the most simple LP rom but after a wekk i got Lags and slow response.

so far now you can have SlimLP and RR if you want to have an LP which will last for months.

But if you want to stick on KK better have CM coz until now CM has always updates for our maguro also you can have SlimLP build 9 if you want to exprience SlimPie.

but if you WANT to have MORE STABLE better have the stock (last google support) which im using now for 2weeks and its battery life is awesome, i can play music for 4-5hrs, play game for 3-4hrs, surfing for 3-4hrs.

so now which will you want to flash? LP? KK? JBstock?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saprer:
i tried nearly everyrom from ICS to LP and have to say this is the best WHICH WORKS FOR ME:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-android-revolution-hd-11-0-quality-t1361348

+ the latest fancy kernel.

After i did flash these i have seen how good the nexus is still.

every other rom just lagged and was slow after usage.

this rom i use for 2 weeks and its the best so far.

[MENTION=4663749]saprer[/MENTION], the last message in that thread is from 2013, which makes me doubt if it is up-to-date. Thanks anyway for your opinion.

[MENTION=5197100]Akosijasper[/MENTION], are you getting Google Play Services FCs lately with AOSP KK?.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Master94ga:
Zmod is very stable, and good for daily use. I reach almost 3 hours of display with an old (3years) Gnexus and all work very well ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
I've been using ZMod for almost two months. After that, I went back to KK because of the laggish behaviour.

In any case Ziyan has done a great job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
well i also tried that one but i doubt about it coz its been so long and no update

yeah so i quit Aosp stock KK

well at first i'm using Zmod and its one of my favorite ROM bug its getting laggy same with Unofficial CM 12.1 so far on me RR on its latest build is okay but im not that sure how long will it last that it won get laggy on the other hand SlimLp is also good coz its miscellaneous batt drain is gone now but for me all LP has slow response with takes 2-4sec before an app will open. then when using LP those HD games or big size games are getting laggy and slow response.

to all sorry for making this thread its just i'm to concern on our maguro yeah its 3yrs old on the market but still i love this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
I think there is nothing to apologize. This thread is OK at this precise moment because some of us are getting a big trouble finding the right rom for our beloved gnexes.

LP = Laggish, memory always exhausted, not responsive, not performant, not a good user experience.

KK = Problems with Google Play Services.

JB = 4.3 too old?.

Solution: get a new sexy phone! xD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhonnyx:
Is this me or this should go on Q&A?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ALBIEL:
Stock 4.1.2 best rom and stock kernel I use 2 weeks and no problem :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diogofd8:
The problem with 4.3 roms and older are exactly that, they are old. Our Gnex runs KitKat extremelly well as AOSP KitKat proves it so there's no reason to be on 4.3 or older for performance alone.

Let's hope for some love on KitKat roms that solve the PlayServices force close (and maybe the battery drain since my phone is keeping its "Deep Sleep" state for over 94% in 3 days without charging since I'm not using it and it's just laying on the desk but the battery still drains really fast). I'm seing like 5% drain evey hour even with those stats. If I use the phone the battery drains like 10% hour so the "sleeping" is very lousy.

Well, maybe with the optimized "Lollipop" in Android M we can get something off the new system on our Gnex, but for now, 4.4.4 with some love in terms of Google Play Services bugfix and battery draining would be perfect. Please note that I'm not demanding anything, I'm just stating what I believe would be very stable in our phone and what I would like to use. I also believe the majority of gnex owners already have a second phone and like to have the latest software in their phones (and may not mind the lag and abuse of RAM since they don't use the phone for continuous time). But for the ones who still have this one as their trophy in the pocket, I believe that wether having KitKat running well or Lollipop running almost well, we would prefer KitKat.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stuccamelo:
Hi,

for me http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-t3026583

Is one of the best, very stable and very fast and support f2fs very well, unfortunately the autor, "sgspluss", not updating anymore, and there is also the problem with play services in common with all KK roms. Until GOOGLE resolve this issue. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saprer:
but the rom i posted is 4.3 and based on latest ROM aviable.

i dont know but it was the best experience i had: no lagg no stutter good battery and performance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
I'm using Official CM 11 by Ziyan ATM, and the Google Play Services FCs are gone. Not as fast as other KK roms, but hey, everything is working ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mateusm:
I was about to comment the same. I'm on nightlys, everything works. The problem with CM is once you start updating the nightlys it tends to get very sluggish, I don't know why. It does look like the best choice for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monnezzas:
Greenify will surely save a lot of performance if correctly used. I'm on Slimkat 4.4.4 and in 6 months no lag at all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
yeah i've been with that rom and i love that rom but google play services problem and sudden reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
well said my friend. yeah your right with it KK has this problems right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
Thanks for participating for this thread and sorry for making this thread i'm just wondering what would be your point of view for our maguro. Yeah some of us has their 2nd phones already but its just so awful that living this legacy phone that sudden. Some of us uses this phone as their daily driver and still using it cause its still working and not enough money to buy one. I'm just concern to those people who's still using this legacy phone that is why i made this thread.

LP right now is not that good enough for our gnex

KK also have this googleplay services problem and the fast drain battery

on JB its too old (yeah your right) but some says it is more stable on its battery life and its ram (without exposed) the problem for JB is the apps of the those huge games that may cause slow on gaming.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aliesz:
if you want to use stock ROM,I think the stock 4.3 with stock kernel or fancy r43 kernel is the best, if you want to use custom ROM I suggest you shiny 4.4.2 or OmniROM larest builds with franco r398 or fancy r60 kernels, I had used OmniROM with franco r398 kernel for 8months before I give my lovely gnex to my father.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
can you give me a link for it? i mean the omni + franco?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tetsujin101:
IMO one of the best roms is indeed the last rasbeanjelly release by rascarlo. That in combo with The trinity kernel and you have a awesome performer. "Problem" is it is 4.3 based and I cant find the latest build of the rom (which should be 4.3.1).

I asked the dev but he has no build for maguro any more.

If someone have the latest rbj build to share?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Are you serious guys? you're talking about roms from late 2012. I think it isn't really necessary to go back JB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CYoung234:
I personally use LP as a daily driver, Euphoria to be specific. I am not having a problem with the google play store fc on this phone (I have that problem on my Nexus 7 tablet). I think we should be thankful that devs are still cranking out ROMs for our phones. We also have to accept that this phone is not a Nexus 5 or Nexus 6.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
all i know is the thread was deleted. all i found is this http://aokp.co/devices/maguro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
i was using euphoria a while ago but its has a slow response especially in uploading video, is is okay now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
after all the ROM i tested i came back to stock gnex :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
Again thank you for participating this thread i know this must be on Q&A but if i put it there no one will notice it. sorry developers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CYoung234:
I do not use the phone for uploading video. I view some videos, mp4s mostly. I really use the phone to talk, text, use a lot of WhatsApp, and use it to tether my tablet. I also do not listen to music, watch YouTube or social network (Facebook, twitter, etc.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
To all: The age of the software is irrelevant. Software does not age like a car. If it was good software in 2013, it is good software now. Old software is actually better than new software because we know its problems. New software has new hidden problems.

BUT: I use ZMOD 5.1.1 and it works fine for me. If you have performance problems, maybe there is a bug, or maybe you have too much software installed and have run out of RAM. I use various system monitors (including the one hidden in "developer options") to see how so many apps install services which waste RAM. I have needed to uninstall many apps. Then I use "Recently" by [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] and I manually keep only 3 apps open at once, so RAM is not exhausted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GunFishin:
I've tried a large number of ROM + Kernel combos and always come back to a ShinyROM 4.4.4 + DirtyV Kernel. Converted the ROM to F2FS and everything works really well. I'm likely to finally upgrade to something else this year so I'm sticking with this setup for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Good tip [MENTION=3677457]GunFishin[/MENTION], I'll give a (new) try to Shiny.

I feel my current rom (CM11 official) a little slugish. Regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeromejeremytay:
Currently I am running the Dreams LP build. While playing Clash of Clans, I do feel that the performance is better than CM10 4.1.2. In my opinion, it would be better to judge the performance of each individual rom when every one of us reverts back to factory stock (I mean clean stock, no dirty flash and no custom roms hopping) before flashing any rom. Go back to clean stock, then flash the rom that you want. I do not know why but I feel that this is better, maybe just a placebo effect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bernardblack76:
I flash 3 ROMs from Vanir: two KK and one 4.3 and i don't see any other roms with nice settings like in Vanir group roms :) ... i got no FC play store, no restarts etc ... stable, smooth and nice looking:) and all is working

now i'm leaving my 4.3 stock and trying again the shiny coz its has 300mb ram
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
i tried to convert it to f2fs but i failed. can you help me the steps on how can i do it? :( i'm trying shiny again now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Shinny is too big and bloated to fit the /system partition in F2FS. You must delete apks. I'm not using F2FS anymore, but you could use the F2FS converter by Poo and me.

I'm currently running Shinny with Fancy r60, tweaked and debloated, with xposed and several mods.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
so now so far this is more stable right? can i ask for your settings on r60 kernel? im not good in tweaking kernels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Not much tweaking:

CAB = on

Vibration = 64

FSYNC = off

All MPU voltages reduced by 50

VAUX3_6030 = 2700

VMMC = 1300

The rest is ok by default (westwood, sioplus and ondemandplus).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
thanks. is facny better for this rom than Dirty V?

right now im flashing Shiny.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
Not really. DirtyV is very complete, it gives you a lot of control and customization options.

Fancy is less complete but it is conceived to give performance and a good battery experience.

Both are good and stable. Try both and decide for yourself ;)

i would say paranoid android 2.54 (jb 4.1.2) was stable for daily use and i used it for 6-7 months, the came kitkat and lollipop and i tried a lot of roms but no one was stable and fast like pa 2.54.

unfortunately i cant find that rom anymore, in pa website there are only the 2 latest kk rom, if anyone has pa 2.54 i would ask to upload it somewhere please :(

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sergialess:
I was a Slim lover xDDD

I tasted some flavours, although there was a rom based on Slim that was not ported to Maguro and I always wanted to taste: BrokenOS.

BrokenOS has a build for Toro, but not for Maguro (I can't understand it since both devices are quite similar). So here goes my question: If I grab the rom zip for Toro and change "some files", could I convert the rom to maguro specific, or am I just dreaming?. I don't have enough time to be a maintainer :S.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
base on the Broken OS G+

"Ken -Broken Mother****er- Greenwood 1:17 PM

we haven't had a toro build since the lollipop bring up, and never a build for maguro, so unless you or someone you know wants to step up, I don't see it happening any time soon..﻿"

so if there is someone who wants to develop broken on our maguro, i want to but i'm not a developer and i don't know how to develop also i don't have a PC to be use for developing.

My Shiny rom died yesterdat. I couldn't access Settings (FCs). Tried cache/dalvik wipe and no luck, so I decided to flash Vanir 4.4.4 (BTW, difficult to find because devs removed KK links for maguro).

[MENTION=4815527]sergialess[/MENTION] try clean flash. i hope it will be okay and just try the stock kernel, i think flashing other kernel on shiny got FCs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CYoung234:
If you really want to run KK, I would suggest the 7/05/14 FML ROM with Franco r396 kernel. That is what I always used to run on my GNex before going to LP. I found for me that it was better optimized and faster than Omni. I never really got into PA because I did not want or need the pseudo tablet mode, and I never really used Shiny, so it is hard to compare.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Akosijasper:
can you post the link? for us to try it?

tried CM11 by ziyan for the past two days and the battery drain is the biggest problem. Saw some people complaining about google play services messing with kitkat roms whats that all about ? currently on cm12.1 by ziyan pretty stable and battery life is pretty good too with some minor battery drain. Though it seems to be lagging when opening apps now after using it for a week with just 7-8 user apps installed.

JUst a note. Based on this discussion, I decided to load the 7/05 FML with Franco r396 again. I have to say WOW! I have a bad phone, as it has never been able to run the best kernels successfully; trinity, fancy, luckyk, dirtyv, etc. But with this ROM and kernel combo I am getting Antutu scores of 16K +, and the phone stays very smooth and responsive.
