Since I am a lurker but not a poster, XDA Forum does not allow me to post my question to the development folders. I have long history of rooting and putting custom ROM my phones. So, I can't say I am an expert but I am not a newbie either. So, to all developers, thank you for spending time and making these amazing ROMs.
I recently got a Galaxy Note i717 and immediately flashed with Padawan V8 after checking the forums. It is an amazing ROM. I have two small issues and I can't seem to find a resolution.
First one, there are no labels for the icons at the home screen. I could not figure out how I can put them back. As it seems it is not a featue of the rom, when look at the screenshots.
Second one, I have a screen PIN lock on the phone. When I receive the call, I answer it, but during the conversation, it goes on dark I can't seem to bring the screen back until other party hangs up.
Is it a known bug or did I mess something up with my phone?
Thanks for all your help in advance.
This is not a well known ROM?

To answer your first question, this is a VERY well known ROM, the answer to other question, about labels...there used to be a file in the goody bag that the Dev has for this ROM that adds those labels
See it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907203
Try looking in the thread for the Padawan V8 rom here on XDA under developer threads...hope this helps
btw...you can also simply change launchers to get labels.
Thank you. I will try there.

Hi guys,
I still possible to make SGS2 unlock the phone as soon as i enter the right pin code on lock screen, without having to press the OK button down the bottom?
Doubt it, asthe ability to lock the sim card be too great. Example: you make a mistake on the last digit. 2 attempts left. You have taken a couple of beers. Ops. Sim Locked
Has anyone found a solution to this??
I've been customizing my phone every day for who knows how long, little by little to get it just how i like it, and this 'OK' button is annoying. VERY annoying. Though, I need a PIN on my phone, and 99.99%of the apps on the market have horrible horrible designs. No offence, but I'd rather stay with the android look. All of the thread's I've found have either told someone to use a third-party app, or use CM10. Well, someone who has almost all of their information on their phone can't afford to install this, seeing as it wipes your entire phone, and for a PIN, that's unnecessary. I don't know what roms are, same with roms. I like the way the touchwiz UI looks on my E4GT(I have fk09 leak installed, recently got this phone, and barely had anything on it). I like the way JB looks with touchwiz way more than it did on ICS(looked horrid).
TL;DR
If someone can find a fix to this, without any third party launchers, or horrible-looking apps, that would be great. If you give a rom, explain how to install it. Thanks in advance.
The rom SlimBean has this feature which I use. It can be found in the lock screen settings.

I'm going to preempt the inevitable question that's going to come following Drexciya's excellent suggestion to use Slim if you want this feature (tick quick unlock in settings/interface/lock screen/screen security).
How do you install it ? Read the first page of the Slim thread in Development. Easy.

Thanks for an answer, but AFAIK, FK09 has no recovery mod, which i didn't realize, and unless someone kniws of one that supports the build,pr whatever, I can't load any mods.. Also, links to specefic topics help a lot..
And you're unable to go to the Development section & look for the Slim Bean thread like everyone else here why exactly ? (using the XDA app on your phone & being too lazy don't count as valid answers).
Re: whatever you're running now that has no recovery, looks like you're going to have to flash something else; another rom that has CWRecovery or at the very least temporary CWRecovery (which will disappear after you reboot) if you want to flash Slim. I don't believe there's an Odin version.

No, I'm not being lazy, I simply dont know where to look. Not sure if you could tell, t I'm new here, and I'm not used to this. Did you expect me to just know where EVERYTHING is? I found this thread after wasting my entire evening looking for a solution, and found this thread. I signed up specefically for this purpose. I was trying to ask for a link without looking too unappreciative, but rhatbobvoliously didn't help. And I don't use an xda app, nor do I intend to.

I really don't know how to do this.. Is there a thread for this? I'll just google it.. Thanks anyways.
My point was (is) I don't have a link. If I want to get you a link, I'd go to Development (by navigating the site; not exactly a new fandangled web thingy) & find the thread, come back here & post the link. You're perfectly capable of doing this yourself, yet you expect me to that ?
That speaks volumes about the people who seem to visit here these days. They want everything served up to them on a silver platter with a minimum or no effort on their own part.
Also, from his first post in this thread, he's an Epic 4g Touch user. Any ROM suggestions he gets here are likely to be i9100 ROMs.

And this shows that some people who find themselves comfortable here can't read. I obviously don't know how to get to development, or how to navigate the forums. I don't inderatand how it takes any more explaination that I DON'T KNOW where to look. Get around looking like a smart allic, and actually take the time to help people around. What are you, 14? You act like it, as everyone is supposed to know everything on a site for developers. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that I know nothing about these things. I didn't do the rooting, soneone else did, so stop expecting everyone knows as much about this forum, or everything you are, because they don't. As far as I know, I didn't come here to argue with someone I don't even know, who thinks they're an internet genious, I came here for support. A link is the least of your problems if you think I know where it is. If you don't want to, don't do it, that's simple, just don't do it. Just don't reply, and save yourself the embarassment, because you just made the forums seem like ignorant children with conputers, who care more about criticising people than anything.

Aren't they both Galaxy SII's? I would think they did the same, and these roms run the same.. Does that mean that there are no rom for the epic 4g touch? If not, is there a way around this without rom?
Thanks in advance

Clearly you don't know you're in the wrong place anyways.
Yes, they are both Galaxy SII's. They are different, however, since yours (Epic 4g Touch) is a phone designed to work on Sprint's CDMA network. That phone has a separate forum. There are plenty of ROMs for that device in its forum.
The device this forum is for (GT-I9100) is a GSM phone that won't even work on Sprint's network. So no, ROMs for this phone won't work on your phone.

Thank you, for clearing this up
I can't post in the development forum because I just made this account. Wanted to thank xboarder for all of your hard work, been using BeastMOD for about a day now, and it's been mostly without a hitch. However, I noticed that once an SMS goes past the character limit it will not send, was curious if this was a problem many people were having or if it was isolated to me.

question about BeastMOD AMAZE 4g
I just made this account also so i cant post yet. Im using beast mod for about a day also and i've noticed that the theme kinda gets in the way a little. ex. the status bar tabs the txt is nearly invisible, in the Calendar the little red line the shows you the time in reference to your schedule is black and is a little hard to find sometimes. Is there an un-themed version of beastMOD or a way return the theme to stock colors ? By the way beastmod rocks!!!!!!

Did you just ask this here and then started a thread to ask the same thing?
One thing I've learned is just to be patient bro. Someone will get around to answering your questions as best as they can.
There's no need for double posts.
Seems like you just copied and paste.

Sorry I wasn't trying to be rude or anything.
Just saying that if you give it some time you'll eventually get an answer.
X and Binary are awesome at replying to posts whenever they do see them.
I'm sure someone will be able to help. Good luck.
Hi guys, new to the forum and fairly new to android, I've got a galaxy s3 international version locked to the three network in the UK, I've been considering using a custom ROM but wanted to know your opinions?
Criteria for me are simple, I like the look of stock android so I want that or something similar, but I like the functionality of TouchWiz so would like to retain that if possible. The only other thing is the quick settings/toggles on the notification bar in TouchWiz, this is something I now cannot live without so it needs to have that or something similar (tbh i just like the auto rotate, wifi and brightness toggles).
Thanks in advance guys, look forward to your answers.
Chris.
Welcome to the forums. Always check the stickies before you post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935514
the best thing to do is to try different ROMs for yourself. Everyone has their own preference and no 2 rom set ups are exactly the same.

Thanks for the advice, ill look into some roms and try a few out, another question i have though is whats the difference between the android development forum, and the original development forum?
Also in regards to checking the stickies about asking which rom is best I did not ask that, I simply asked for a recontamination from experianced users to help me find a rom which suited my specification, it wasnt as simple as which rom is the best, it was more of a "which rom can provide these features" kinda thing.
Thanks for the help though appreciate it, cant help but think how much better/faster my s3 will be without the samsung software

It will be much better. :highfive: I will be closing this though, as it will turn into a best rom thread and "who has more features" or "whose is more stable". Best thing to do is read up and try.
Hello,
While changing my front glass screen of my S3, i've damaged the capacitive button interface, i've already ordered one new for replacement, but until there is there any way to have the buttons on screen like Nexus (NavBar) in a Touchwiz JB ROM? NOT like an AOKP or CM based rom.. I know that those have that option like paranoidrom.
Regards.
Check the first rule of XDA. Hint: you just broke it.
Your thread is also in the wrong section. Questions go in the QA
You're right.. i've posted on the wrong section...
About searching i've already did and didn't found anything for a International touchwiz JB ROM, can you post here an answer? or you just broke the rule 7 about this one?
Regards.

took me 3 seconds
Well.. i got to admit, you're very good using google.. but i still didn't found anything on those results that works on a JB touchwiz, not CM10 based ROM, did you?
Rule N1
"Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news."
OUR=Google.. oh my bad, i've used XDA search engine, maybe its the same engine.. I dont know.
I Really apreciate your help, maybe i didn't said that i've tried everything on those results previously and that they didn't worked for me, it causes BootLoop's, so you assumed that i didn't searched anything, may be i didn't melted my brain searching but i've searched alot, im a member since 2008 and this is my 1st thread started by me, so i didnt started the thread without having a little fight with search options.
Thank you for you help.

I have been reading a lot post here and while I had just ordered a new tablet I decided to give rooting my Nook tablet a try. I wish I could remember everyone's name here to thank for thier post and help. But I ended up using so many different posts as I stumbled my way to success. So can I please just thank everyone who helps here and the Forum for being here? I did achieve success...which for myself was a great feeling. So I sent back the new tablet and kept the Nook.
One question when I use Goo mgr and up date to a new nightly I always have to sign back in and replace all my apps onto the Home screen . Is this normal? I have to go through all the updates of the different apps etc. Do you have to update every cm nightly or just once in awhile? Thanks again for everyone here.
I don't use Goo so I don't know about that part but you certainly do not have to update all the time! If you're happy with the way things are running, just leave it alone. Maybe read change logs to see if there's anything there that sparks your interest.
