Hi all. I have an i9505 on 3 UK that has been rooted for over 6 months. I've been running the excellent TW based Echo Rom but wanted to try an ASOP rom but quickly wanted to revert. I tried to restore my Nandroid but this failed and screwed up the phone (dont ask)so back to ODIN and i...

Im currently running Echoe Rom V13 4.3 and started getting issues with 'insufficient storage' on app update. The cure seemed to be deleting the duplicate entry for the app in data/app-lib.as the problem got worse I Eventually I re flashed the rom with a clean flash and all was good. I had a...

Hi all.. Have been running a few 4.3 roms (lately m31a) without a hitch. Went to update it's theme through aroma and it screwed up, the phone would boot but would then freeze up. I couldn't get into recovery to access a nandroid. Eventually had to go back to stock via odin. Then reflashed cwm...

Hi all. Ive just updated my S2 to an S4 (Three UK) last week and have already updated to 4.3. With my S2 I rooted at an early stage and used numerous ROMs - on the S4 Ive wanted to hold fire due to the warranty issue but miss the rooted aspect if not just to be able to lose the Samsung...

With early AOKP ROMs I was having an issue with the external SD card being picked up by some apps. For quite a while I used remount SD to point the ext card to a new folder extSdCard. Now the default AOKP/cm setup seems fine in jb 4.2 so I deleted the remount app a few ROMs ago. I found some...

Ive flashed a new ROM today (X-treme V9) and now when I go into the Play Music app it shows as already logged in to my Google account. I can play music on the SD card but not stream or access the store through the app. I tried clearing the data and logging out of the PC version but to no...

As above, I was having issues with the media scanner running on so i tried deleting the media storage data. Now when I go into sound options i only have 1 ringtone and notification to choose from. I cannot even find anything if I go into the zedge app option or into Music from this screen...

I wasn't too sure where to put this as I'm currently on a custom ROM (Omega 4.2.2) but I also had the same issue on root box 4.2.2 too, so am unsure if its something connected to jelly bean as this didn't happen on ICS. By default I have location access switched to off but every other day or so...

Hi. I'm unsure where to post this but as I'm running Root box 3.9.1 I believe this is ROM related. I usually use poweramp for my music playing but wanted to try jet audio. I was surprised to find that none of the music on the external SD (95% of my collection) showed up. I tried player pro...

As above. I've tried going back to flashing a few jb ROMs recently after sticking with ICS rootbox for a while. Everyone seems to 'lose' the clock display in the status bar very quickly after re-flashing and nothing I do brings it back. I've tried changing the clock position to no avail...

I have undervolted on my S2 for a while now, using different kernels and have a question i cant see answered anywhere else. Does undervolting (i.e applying a reduction to each frequency) or reducing the settings for the gpu result in the best battery savings ? At the moment I am using Dream...

I've noticed over the last few days that the connectivityservice wakelock seems high. Eg so far today its running at c.24mins and over 3100 counts from 12 hrs up time. I can't say if this is a new situation as i don't check wake locks that often. The phone does seem to be deep sleep OK and I do...

I'm not sure if this is from related or ics generally as I haven't been able to find any other examples. The time will freeze in the notification screen randomly. The system time is OK - I.e. if I set alarms they still work and show the actual time, even though the time at the top of the screen...

Yesterday I downloaded NOVA 3 for my S2 - a process which took about 8 hrs ! After playing the game I found it wasnt for me so I deleted the app. However the sdcard has not 'freed up' the 1.8G of data space. I`ve rescanned the card, checked all files I can think of on both internal & ext sd...

Ive recently rooted and am currently trying a Siyah kernel on GB 2.3.6. I had also downloaded voltage control but the governor would default back to ondemand after a reboot. I thought maybe something was conflicting somewhere so uninstalled Voltage Control and downloaded Setcpu which I had...
