Questions - ( put where needs to go ) topic

Not sure what section to post this in being its a question but also talking about a ROM....
Anyways i have the sprint galaxy s3 L710
just switched to slimbean 4.3 ver stable 2.2


What are some of your opinion's and tweaks to save battery while on this rom ?

As of right now stock rooted gets better battery and signal



I'm currently using the following apps to try to save battery
-greenify pro
-deep sleep battery saver
-CPU sleeper

I've tried googling this and nothing direct is popping up..

[Q] Updating Xperia Z and what needs to be done? topic

Hi everyone..

I'm writing this post after being offline from XDA for quite a long while, so keep it cool when answering since my knowledge of what I'm talking about is very limited by now. I have an Xperia Z with eXistenZ 5.0 installed, Build number 10.4.B.0.569, which is a JB Rom and I'd like to try out some new roms, firmwares, recoveries and so on..

First of, I have unlocked my bootloader a very long time ago and I haven't gone back to Stock since then and I am not planning to do so. However to start updating my Xperia what should be done? I have already backed up my current rom with Titanium Backup.

For some reason I can't access recovery mode when powering on and pressing volume down, but I know for a fact that it's pretty easy to install a recovery again.

It would be very much appreciated if you would explain what should be done and why.

Looking forward to hearing from you..!

Phone loses call sound, needs reboot. topic

Hi.

I got an I9505 and having some issues with it.

It started when I was on "[AOSP] Official 4.4.2 - S4 Google Edition - Feel the Experience of Nexus" I keeped loosing sound when calling people and needed to reboot my phone to fix it, and it only worked for short period of time before I needed to reboot again.

I tried some wifi fix etc, but didnt work. So I flashed "OMN-I9505XXUEML6-20131228111854" But now the wifi isnt working.
I read alot of knox and to be honest its a jungle for me out there.

Just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction, I just want my phone working, either official room or a google play room.

[Q] Friend of my friend needs help, Bricked his device. topic

The title should explain some of my problem. I have not met the owner of this device, he did something to his device and messed it up, he gave it to my friend, who couldn't fix it, and then gave it to me to fix. I have NO IDEA what they have done, what software version is was originally on, and what they tried to do to fix it. The owner doesn't know himself.

It does have Odin installed an I've used versions 3.0.9 and 3.0.7 and 3.0.6. I have used the following firmware packages:

I605VRUEMJ9_I605VZWEMJ9_I605VRUEMJ9_HOME.tar.md5

KIES_HOME_I605VRAMC3_I605VZWAMC3_1098177_REV04_use r_low_ship.tar.md5

I am worried I may have destroyed the device, I used the re-partition option multiple times with different combinations of firmware packages and Odin versions.

Odin on the phone says:

Product name: Sch-i605 (duh)
Custom Binary Download: no
Current binary: Samsung Official
System Status: official
(then in gray, don't know if that means anything)
Knox warranty void: 0
Ap swrev: A2


Can you guys help me or is this to obscure? ( or did me re partitioning the device ruin my chances?)

[Q] Noob needs help installing KatKiss ROM topic

Hi there!
I am a super noob in installing custom ROMs and desperately need some help!
I have an Asus Transformer tf101 (duh), I don't have the keyboard dock. I want to install the KKKK ROM, but I have no idea how to. I know I have to wipe, boot rom, flash kernel and reboot, but I really have no idea how to. I do not have an SD card (and I don't think my tablet can take one), but there is a folder on the tablet somewhere called sdcard. So... Can you help me? I have searched through the forums but I am not sure if descriptions for other devices go for mine as well...

Concluding: I have the TF101 without the keyboard dock. It runs stock android (updated as far as I could, just checked it: Android 4.0.3). And I want to run KatKiss' KitKat ROM.


Can you help this noob installing a ROM (and not bricking the device?;))? It would be very much appreciated!

[Q] MAJOR NOOB needs help with using my external SD for apps and data topic

So I have looked around XDA-Developers for at least 3 hours now over the past few weeks (most from work!), and I am still absolutely lost when it comes to fixing my L9 P769 ((running JB 4.1.2 (SW Ver P76920h)) so that I can install apps to my ext. SD card.

I have read multiple forums and posting, and I am convinced that you all KNOW what your are doing, but I still can make sense of your posts enough to fix my own phone. Can anyone PLEASE explain this in as much detail as possible, step by step?

I am not as big a NOOB as some (I have flashed ROMs to 5 different phones over the years) BUT I still can't get this one figured out, and the last thing I want to do is screw up the phone I need for daily communication.

My wish list for this phone is not that long.
1) Apps to my Ext. SD
2) ability to communicate with a heart rate strap (I think I need BT 4.0, but I read somewhere that it could be done with this phone.)
3) Maybe make my phone a little faster (OC of CPU? what does overclocking the GPU help with?)

I'd rather not put a new ROM (.kdz?) on this phone, unless it's FLAWLESS. I have a very low tolerance for glitches, in my old age!

Thanks for any help and all replies!
