Hey cool dudes, anyone know how to apply themes in AOKP theme chooser? I keep getting a "This theme is improperly compiled" error. I gather that you are supposed to apply the system theme and reboot, then select the theme you wanna use. Well I've done that, five times, same error. Anything else I can do?

LastInLine posted:Well I did read after the fact that Better Battery Stats is what causes the statusbar to appear completely empty (no widget, no notifications) when you wake it from sleep. They're so close to an RC that I'll probably just wait until then to try again, but I have to say that I had a lot better experience over the weekend on the whole than I did last time I tried it in early May. Have you checked in case there was a setting in the Settings>Sound>Quite Hours area that enables/disables this stuff as well? The setting is called 'Disable Notification Light' I think. Also regarding Better Battery Stats -- I've been using this since I rooted and haven't had any issues with the status bar disappearing. Sorry for the bad news. I don't even know what else to recommend that might help you. Sounds like a dodgy app you might have installed at some point. I bet it was that goon Scott Ferguson's!

give me thread posted:Well for what it's worth I installed it about two hours ago and have been testing notifications with SMS and WhatsApp. They seem to be working fine and the LED flashes when it's supposed to flash. I have my LED settings set up through the Settings>Display>Pulse Notification Light area with custom values set. I think this overrides any app-related settings. I had the same thing happen with GMail where it was working fine with a quick moving thread and then it just stopped. When I woke up I noticed there was another new GTalk notification but the light wasn't on so that's when I reverted. Whenever I tested it though it appeared to work fine. As for the statusbar disappearing, it was happening pretty much every time I woke the phone. If I pulled it without unlocking it, the bar would be entirely blank, no notifications, no signal indicators, no widget, until I woke the phone and waited for a few seconds.

Not sure if this needs rooted buy my aunt gave me her older Verizon Galaxy Tab. I'm looking to just make it a regular wifi tab that won't attempt to connect to Verizon's network (possibly garnering an unwanted bill). Any good way to go about this or is there a setting in the rooted OS to remove the 3G, and I should root it.

Just disable the mobile network in the control panel. Also, if that tab is not actively attached to a Verizon account it won't be able to connect to Verizon's towers in a useful fashion anyway.

Is there a consensus on what is the 'best' ROM for a rooted Bionic? I had an OG droid and ran Bugless Beast on it. I need something that gives me more than 4 hours of battery life ideally. I live in a 4G market, so having the 4G radio work would be nice too. Should I just bide my time for ICS, or is there a usable ICS ROM floating around out there?

So, a question on ROMs for the SGSIII. The international and the US versions have different SoCs, so obviously the ROMs wouldn't be cross compatible. But within the US versions they differ only according to radios. Some have LTE, some have CDMA, etc. But the radios are a separate flash on most ROMs. Are US ROMs going to be compatible with any US SGSIII?

So I've got one of those fancy-schmancy Google TV's (Sony running Honeycomb 3.1) and it has some issues. Forced uninstallable apps and the lack of market support is killing me. GTVBox is decent as a media player, but I want full market access and was wondering if that was possible via rooting the TV. Is rooting a Google TV even possible/feasible/doable at this point?

ilkhan posted:So, a question on ROMs for the SGSIII. It'll probably be like the Galaxy S variants (Captivate, Fascinate, etc) which were more or less the same hardware with different radios, so a huge amount of work could be shared between the devices but each still had a separate firmware. Improvements to one device could easily apply to all four.

On the other hand, because the SGS3 does exist with relatively few variations on a number of carriers, and furthermore, Krait is a very popular SoC for 2012 devices in the US market, the hope is that source-based ROMs (CM, AOKP, etc.) will be able to share lots of code and fixes across devices.

I recently got off my rear end and updated my Sensation 4G to the stock, but rooted from here. I'm enjoying ICS on it, but man is my battery life is pretty crappy now, nothing has changed with my usage. I also get popups several times a day saying my phone is up to date, I have it under settings to not check for updates. Has anyone run into any kind of problems? I really don't want to mess with the custom ROMs, I did that on my N1 and eventually got bored with changing all of the time.

You should be able to update to 3.2 at this point, and Google Play should be on the device already. If it isn't try a factory data reset? Also, you can easily sideload apps by using Dropbox or getting adb from the SDK and 'adb install' your apks. As far as rooting/removing uninstallable apps you _may_ have options but I've yet to try them: http://blog.gtvhacker.com/2012/root-for-sony-google-tv-with-unsigned-kernels/

Hey so I installed Cm7.2 the other day on my G2 for shits and giggles. Here are some thoughts. ~ICS transitions backported and are pretty smooth. ~The last Cm7 approved (20110828) gapps package made my phone bootloop for some reason. ~Wifi reception seems worse than it did on Cm7.1 which wasn't exactly great. We're talking about 60dbm before vs 80dbm after from exactly the same spot. What the gently caress. ~Camera seems to boot up a bit faster. ~They're still shipping the rom with Spare Parts and the ever crash prone Rom Manager which immediately poo poo itself on first boot. Oh wait that's like virtually all the changes that have been made that are immediately apparent. Good job guys, that only took 10 months. I guess those issues with the GSM Galaxy S 1's emergency calls have been fixed too so that's good. I'm really underwhelmed, even if the transition effects are pretty sweet. Having Gapps package being totally broken is a real pisser, but nothing that can't be worked around. Wifi reception has slowly gotten worse with every release of CM since 6.1 so that's no surprise, if really goddamn irritating. I suppose since this was in development concurrently with CM9 I shouldn't be surprised at all about the minimal changes. Though I suppose ADB via network is really snazzy, I can't recall an instance where I've used ADB for a single thing other than rebooting to recovery when installing the DZ Hboot.

A new nightly CM9, another day where I wake up with no LED notification light on but a notification in the statusbar. (This time a GMail.) Worked fine all day with both GMail and Talk.

Thermopyle posted:Is there a reason you moved on from stock? Just curious? I like the statusbar mods like no clock/signal in dBm/battery percentage and my phone spends a majority of its time upside down so I like 180 degree rotation but I can do without either just fine. Volume skip tracks comes in handy at work. I was mostly just seeing how far along it was coming and except for the unreliable LED notifications it's much better than it was when last I tried it.

I've been out of the loop for a while, and have some questions about the upcoming US release of the Galaxy SIII (mine will be on Verizon). Will the phone have an unlocked (or unlockable) bootloader? Will it be an easy root (and is there a one-click available yet)?

OK, I had been dicking around with ICS roms on my Droid X, and one of them finally borked it into a bootloop (not even a factory reset was fixing it), and seeing as how I'm getting a new phone soon anyway I figured I'd just SBF to stock, but now I can't get any of them to take. I've got the 30.04 bootloader and I've tried 340, 602, 605, and even 621. They all usually fail at the "send ram download" phase, but then still get the Code Corrupt (or other error) bootloader screen. I've got the latest RSD Lite and drivers from the motosbf page, tried the linux thing with one of them, and I've SBF'ed plenty of times before I don't know what the gently caress. Sorry if this is a bit rambley I've been up all night with this loving thing, praying the battery doesn't die. I don't care about root anymore I just need the thing to work for the next couple weeks. Most recent error code was A5,70,70,00,1f I think. EDIT: AAaaaand the battery's low. Hopefully I can get a friend to swap with later. EDIT: Got it to work with the latest sbf_flash and a bootable linux stick. Install Linux, Problem Solved. It was rough going back to my old Curve for the day though.

ilkhan posted:Does the official ATT SGSII (i777) ICS update wipe the phone during install? Most likely you will lose your installed apps. If you're rooted, just run Titanium Backup (be sure to exclude system apps) for those, and move the backup folder to a PC or send it to cloud storage somehow. I would also make a backup of your pictures and music just in case.

Yeah, and since that's the one aspect of the stock KF I like (prime videos) its the one thing holding me on stock. I can use the stock browser on my Galaxy Nexus to watch videos (hd too!) through Amazon's desktop site, which leads me to believe it can be done on the kindle fire after its running ICS as well. Although the KF doesn't have the same horsepower as the Galaxy Nexus and I'm not sure how much of an effect that will have on it. EDIT I can't help myself. I was waiting on hardware acceleration before I made the move to ICS on the kindle fire, and now that its here I went ahead and did it. Will report back!

For anyone with a rooted KF - is there a way to decrease the touchscreen's sensitivity? It's sort of hard to explain but it doesn't take clicks without thinking I'm trying to click and drag something. Two good examples: trying to type and missing letters because it doesn't release over the letter I want, and while using a remote desktop app I can't click on poo poo because when I tap, the mouse pointer immediately moves slightly instead. Any way to tweak this?

Double posting this here and in the phone thread. I've grabbed a droid charge for free to lock-in my 4G unlimited on Verizon and I've been wondering how it is on the stock firmware and if its worth putting a custom rom/kernel on. I'm really hoping it is or I can make it so I can just ignore it most of the time and not worry about how much I am using it or turning things on and off and still make it through a day without it dying. Also it'd be great if it could actually function when I do try to use it.

Return it, exchange it for a Bionic or Razr or anything else. Bad phone, bad radios, no stable roms, no ICS update ever, stock sucks. A Bionic with its horrible screen is much much more stable and functional.
