So I am starting to play with the 4.2.2 desk clock source and am going to try and customize it to high hell. One of the things that I liked about the old desk clock was that toggling the screen off and then back on would leave the clock in screen saver mode and would bypass locking the...

So, somehow this happened, I don't know because I've been on a flashing/modding/nandroiding/restoring binge. Maybe it happened when I installed SuperSU from chainfire while still having SuperUser form ChainsDD still installed. However, I don't remember telling SuperSU to install it's binary...

I've noticed this on every 4.2.2 camera I've tried so far (JBSourcery, AOKP, and one other version from other forums --- and yes, they all functioned slightly differently), however one common thing I noticed was the lag when going form portrait to landscape mode and back. With the stock 4.1.1...

I am stock 4.1.1 verizon rooted, but with 4.2 camera/gallery app. I was doing some romming, system modding, but then restored nandroid... dont know when it happened exactly, but my thumbails were getting swapped between by Camera and Screenshot folders... I cleared cache and data for Gallery...

So I was playing around with framework-res.apk and none of my mods worked, always resulted in a "bootloop"... actually not really a complete bootloop, since the phone booted, but just got stuck on the boot animation (colored JB X). Luckily, letting that ride out for a few minutes was enough to...

Maybe I am late to the game, but if you want the 4.2 photosphere camera on your stock Gnex while you patiently wait for the official 4.2+ OTA, here you go... Here is the original thread where I get the info from: Jelly Bean 4.2 Camera. I found these instructions to work for me. Credits to...

So I've flashed a couple roms, but this is my first kernel-only flash. I'm on stock 4.1.1 and just flashed leankernel stable 4.8. I installed trickstermod think that I can play with the kernel settings using that app. I'm not exactly sure where to start. I have trouble with excessive drain...

I have been having problems syncing the stock browser for the past couple of days. Maybe due to doing a factory data reset through settings and then trying a rom, and then attempting to flash an aosp build... but failing miserably... where the second flash attempt borked my phone into a...

So I've been studying how to build AOSP and many related topics. And I wanted to try and build as close as possible to stock 4.1.1, but I was also interested in pulling some code from stock 4.0.4 (still not sure if its possible, but just playing with it). However, I didn't know which branches to...

I have a droid bionic that I rooted and installed safestrap and eclipse (I think 2.1, a pre-ICS version). I'd like to get it back to stock and update it to the stock ICS OEM rom. I saw this thread, but I couldn't find "pathsaver" in the all things root guide. Any hints are appreciated...

Used to only lose about 12% of battery overnight, now been losing almost double that with "Phone Idle" always being the top battery user. Any ideas on why. It didn't used to do that. The only behavior I've changed since the latest official OS update is that I don't reboot before going to bed...

So I tethered my battery from 80% to 15% (took about 2 hours, so that's not too bad). But when I went to look at my battery stats, they looked unchanged from the 80% mark with a 20 minute phone call taking up the majority (about 40%) of the energy usage. I am pretty sure that before JB...

Media -- DownloadService (android.process.media) is what shows up in running apps. Media - Download Manager DRM Protected Content Storage Downloads Media Storage is what shows up under battery usage. I've seen it use about equivalent usage to "cell standby" over a period of 9 hours...

I use my phone for an alarm clock. I always liked the blue digits with black background, but didn't like that it didn't stick on turning the screen off and on while on battery power. This seems to have been fixed in Jellybean. Now I can have a less bright clock to look at when I wake up in the...

Camera sound used to be controlled media volume iirc. Now it is system volume, and it always goes up to around 6 when entering the camera app, and you have to manually turn it down each time you enter the camera app. not a big deal, just annoying. I think there's a way to replace the camera...
