Mexigga brought to my attention that the problem with flashing the new ROMs is the recovery we are using. TWRP and older versions of CWM give an error when trying to flash 4.4 ROMs. What I did was install the newest CWM from ROM manager (it gave me the AT&T version,everything working fine). I...

Long story short, my metro CDMA s3 hit the bricks and when I did my insurance claim asurion sent me the blue gsm version. I haven't done much in the way of dev work since the CDMA s3 and after checking things out it seems as though there's nothing that needs to be done (pretty much all of the...

THIS IS FOR AOSP CM10 BASED ROMS ONLY!PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE POST! IT WILL SAVE US FROM PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE, SERIOUSLY IT'S NOT THAT LONG! ;) Ready for some pure awesomeness? Well here it is! The KT747 Kernel. Over Clockable to 2.1GHz, Undervolted for battery life, comes packed with the...

Here's a teaser of what I'm doing. No ETA but it will be sooner than you might think. And don't whine about me using quadrant Lol, antutu was being an a-hole and not connecting.

Thought i would let you guys know if you didn't already that the cloud storage company box is running a promotion for owners of lg devices. 50 GB free space. DropBox has done this in the past for owners of Samsung devices, 50 free GB, but there is a big difference here. DropBox promotions are...

Hey guys. I am dropping this in a thread separate from the AOKP thread to increase its exposure and make sure everyone will see it. Some users of AOKP have had issues with mms. The biggest mms issue has been receiving mms messages on a separate thread (picture messages received come in on...

Hey guys, so here's my issue. When I first got the gs3 (metropcs) I played a movie from Google play movies as I was letting the battery die down before I charged for the first time. The movie played without issue. Last night I was trying to watch an episode of the walking dead on Google play...

For rooted phones only! Android police have received a leaked copy of Googles new Gmail app. New features include pinch zoom, swipe to delete/archive amongst others. This will work on any rooted 4.0+ device, including ours. Here is the original link ...

So in a few previous threads about launchers I have cheered for holo and holo hd launchers. I've tried (and bought) most of the launchers on Google play; tsf, spd, adw, go, ftl, zeam, apex pro, holo and holo hd pro, and nova (free version). Plus a few in between. I tried nova free when I first...

Ok, so like I said in another post, I had slight screen lift on my 8gig n7. I did the clamp fix and it worked for about 3 weeks. Now the lift is back. I rma'd it a couple of days ago, it'll be here today. I was looking at the shipping info in the email Google sent me and realized.. They are...

Okay, most of you that know me know that I'm not stupid (or like REALLY stupid at least lol). But... How the hell do you move apps to the sd card on this phone lol.

Did anyone notice that the motions cpu is clocked at 1.5 ghz, not 1.2? Hmm my screens won't post through tapatalk tonight zzz

Didn't think I'd say it so soon but I don't miss my connect... Root or not. I'm getting used to the screen already. This little thing is Damn smooth. Battery life leaves the connect in the dust. Most metro bloat is removable this time around, most of the stuff that isn't, you can disable. The...

Hi guys, I'm sure most of us running custom kernels on our n7's have noticed the clock speeds reset to default whenever the device goes to sleep. Motley over at xda has found a way (POWERHAL) to make our settings stick, and has incorporated powerhal into his kernel (cleverly named motley kernel...
