Hello,
I saw the discussion in Android Development forum that some were able to improve their battery life in Honeycomb (Flashback ROM, specifically) by renaming phone-related apks.
Can someone point me to the instruction on how to do this exactly? Also, are there any down sides to doing this?
Thanks.

Hi all, I just received my HTC Hero. It currently has the default android 1.5 rom.
What is the BEST rom update that is stock, no changes and which version?
There is 1.6, 2.0 and 2.1
What do you advise me to get and why?
Also, lastly, please could someone send me a link with instructions of how to update rom/software needed for update as I don't want to brick a brand new phone.
Regards.

hasn't been developed on this forum....? Just check the HTC website for your latest retailer's ROM. They have instructions on there, if you're unable to follow "double click the exe to update" then please post somewhere else..... anywhere else..... preferably far away from here
I don't really know why your asking which stock rom is best on a forum which develops customised roms... on the other hand, if you want a guide explaining step by step how to install a customised rom (which are often far from stock) please read the first guide in my sig.
It is entirely up to you which ROM you pick but if you're going to create ANOTHER topic about which rom is "best" please read the Q&A section first and post in one of the hundreds of topics which have already been created in there!

Cheers! I will visit HTC's website and follow rom update instructions...
Hi folks,
I purchased a Tab 8.9 in the US, and I've rooted it using mramirezusa's guide. I now need to get it working with ad-hoc networks so I can tether it to my Galaxy S2. I gather that I need to replace the wpa_supplicant file to enable this.
Most of the guides I have seen refer to the Tab 10.1 (and v), so my main question is really, what particular guide have any of the 8.9 owners here used themselves successfully? I saw this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1083182&page=4 and on this page I particularly like the sound of the instructions on post 35 (as it avoids faffing with adb which I've never used before!). The only thing that I'm not sure of is WHAT wpa_supplicant file to use. In other words, are there different versions? Would the version attached to that thread be fine to use for the 8.9?
Many thanks for your help!
EDIT: Just seen that the 10.1 forum has a thread for 8.9 questions. I'll also look in there to see if anyone has the same question.
look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309677
Thanks for taking the time to answer, but I don't want to go down the ROM route just yet, until we have nandroid backup available. I'll feel more comfortable just dealing with the wpa_supplicant file for now. Anyone got any further pointers to my original questions?
Cheers.

Actually, I only looked at the first few words and I saw the word ROM, and I ran away haha. But looking again it seems it's not a ROM at all. Can you clarify exactly what it is?? And is the OP saying that by applying this zip file all of those listed APKs will be automatically removed? As there's actually things in that list that I would like to keep...
Alternatively, if someone can direct me to a wpa_supplicant file they know works with the 8.9, then I'd be happy to take a punt with the instructions in the thread I mentioned in my first post. Ta.
that's no rom. take a look in the zip and you will find a wpa_supplicant file you can apply

So I can just extract the file from that zip and use it for my shenannigans? Excellent! Thanks very much for your help!

Hi I'm trying to get dlev 3.1 as from experience it had the best battery life thanks to being 2.3.5 ... But I'm not allowed to post on that thread so either I accumulate ten posts or ... can anyone help here? The link has no such file found.thanks
Hi,
I'm fairly new to android (recent iOS convert) and playing with roms, I got an international samsung galaxy s3 i9300 which was already rooted and I put the Smartisan OS on to it. After playing with it for a while, it's good but a little buggy in it's pre-alpha state, I'd like to put standard android 4.2 (not the samsung stock software) onto the device.
Would anyone be kind enough to tell me or point me in the right direction to do this please? I've googled and can find people rooting the device or putting other ROMs onto it but nothing that tells me how to put standard android 4.2 on it from the Smartisan OS it's on now.
Many thanks in advance for any help
Best,
Greg
Just flash an aosp zip via recovery and do a factory reset

thanks but I don't really know exactly what that means to be honest
Where do I get an aosp zip from and how do I flash it?

This is what the guides and FAQs are for in general

I thought I made it obvious that I wasn't able to find what I needed in there....
Nope. You didnt mention "general" at all. You said you googled. Look in "General" - important stuff is stuck at the top.
Or follow the link a moderator posted to you in your duplicate thread.
We wont spoon feed you.
Or see the sticky fas and guides .
Any user who cannot find the basics and has not read them should flash nothing .
Saves bricking your phone through ignorance is why .

I'm just asking for a bit of help, a link to something relevant, is that unreasonable to you? I thought this was a help forum.
I've looked and looked and can't find anything on installing pure android from the smartisan OS
Lots about rooting and lots about installing new roms, nothing about simply putting android 4.2 onto it... Do I just need to root it? (mine came rooted with omega on it so I don't know if simply rooting would do the job)
It's probably just the correct terminology that I need to know, is all.

No its a developers forum and users get tired of the same questions day after day .

Root does not put on a rom .

OP if you're not going to bother searching and reading the advice given and then abuse those who try to help, why are you on this site?
Thread cleaned and closed.
Hi All,
First of all apologies if this has been covered in another thread. I've had a long search around and can't seem to find any answers to my question. If i have missed it please point me in the right direction.
I am looking to install cyanogenmod 10.2 onto my S3 i9300 international (currently running the terrible 4.3 updated update).
My first question is how do I know if clockwork mod is installed on my phone? And if it isn't what is the best way of going about setting it up?
Second question is which kernel should i be using to get the best performance/ battery life balance? Also how do i know which kernel I currently have? ( I literally know nothing about this subject)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to learning all the benefits to custom roms and, hopefully grow my knowledge so i can stop pestering you guys.
Cheers all.
Sticky threads will tell you all need to know, follow the guides and advise.
Best rom/kernel threads are not allowed, as is posting questions in the general thread.
