Hi guys About once or twice a day my WiFi cuts out and I get an exclamation mark, after 20 secs it reconnects. Someone on XDA posted a solution here android.stackexchange.com/questions/100657/how-to-disable-captive-portal-detection-how-to-remove-exclamation-mark-on-wi-fi Trouble is I have no...

Hi all Last week or 2 been getting sim card error. Randomly my phone will suddenly stop recognising the sim card, so calls etc can't be made. On rebooting all is fine. This sometimes happens six times a day, sometimes every couple of days. It's very annoying. I'm rooted and on Dan's GPE...

Latest version 1.1.17 now out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52414718

Hi All, after somehow screwing up my phone at the end of last week, I've found myself needing to re-install my favourite ROM. However, I kept getting a "status 7 error". I assumed it was a problem with the latest version of Philz, and being a lazy chump, PMed uncle rusty bum, who pointed me...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43798464 http://echoerom.com/ Anyone tried echoe? Seems a much simpler way of trying 4.3 whilst keeping on old bootloader and avoiding all the Knox/bootloader issues and complications of djembey mega Rom? Thoughts from learned friends much...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40710278 NEW KNOX-FREE ROMS now available! Djembey has released 2 new roms that use the new "root de la Vega" patch to root, which does NOT trip the Knox efuse! This includes a new leaked MJ3 (4.3) firmware. Reports on xda are that this works...

It's a coming..... Android 4.3 arriving for Galaxy S III and Galaxy S 4 in October

It's it just me, or is the Google navigation app on 4.2.2 absolutely pants, especially compared to the older version I used to have on my s2. Seems really difficult to get started, and if you leave the screen I can't get it back. Might try and extract the old version from my s2 and see if that...

Hi guys, I promised I'd report back.... The so-called ausdim kernel is flashable and works on 4.2.2 samsung roms such as omega and Djembey. In his words "this is a kernel compiled from GT-I9505G sources and packed with MF8 initramfs....Is not something special, is a stock kernel i compile...

After having a bash at the Fox hound Rom early today, I tried to restore my Nandroid. Got a message that md5 was corrupt or something along those lines. Now my Nandroid manager app that checks the md5 sum says it's fine. My Nandroid files show up fine in Orange back up, Nandroid manager and...

I'm sure most of you have seen this, if you haven't, it's a kernel that works for I9505 and "is built from Samsung sources update2, Rooted with the latest SuperSu, the main goal of this kernel is to keep it close to stock with a few improvements". It's basically like stock, with a few tweaks...

Right, I've got mobile Odin on my phone. I've downloaded the 9505 files, but what do I do now with these rar files to get my mobile Odin to flash roms??

anyone know how to turn fast dormancy off on the I9505 - apparently gokan's fast dormancy toggle app on play store doesnt work on this version, and the old code *#9900# used on old S2 don't work either can't find a solution to this anywhere.....

On my old S2 I had great success in improving signal with trying different modems, especially with data. Since getting my S4 I've noticed that data signal is not so strong as it was with my S2. DJembey has a thread on XDA with modems flash able through Odin, see here...

Well, OK, this isn't really a brand new kernel, it's just adapted speedmod. but it's getting so quiet on here these days, it feels like the S2 is on it's final legs!! So, if anyone wants to try anything different, I heartily recommend this little gem, for battery life it can't beaten. Main...

Hi folks. was on rootbox for a bit, was a lovely rom and fab features, but 1 too many features just didnt quite work. anyway, the notification sounds on that ROM were much much better than those with Neat. Is anybody here on rootbox? anybody know where they're from?? can anyone post the...

For those of you on a nice new spangly phone such as experia z, which has similar spec to upcoming s4, how do you find it compares performance and battery wise to the s2? Can we expect much of a difference? Slug?

Hello again chaps Have never used this app. a couple of questions for those who have: 1. Are the dire warnings about bricking your phone a real risk; is it similar to the risks from rooting etc ie. like a supermarket "this product may contain nuts" type caveat, or are there significant...

Ironass and Hawker on Christmas Morning: Christmas syd style:

As we've all discovered, battery life on JB is adequate rather than impressive. There's lots of new features and new processes draining the battery. We all use different apps, settings and widgets etc, and so as ironass has said numerous times, what works to improve battery for one person won't...

oh dear. the inevitable has happened. mindlessly flashing has finally caught up with me. tried to update to latest version of rootbox. all fine. then flashed siyah. got to the siyah boot screen, but phone goes no further. lost recovery mode can get into download mode. flashed a stock...

For anyone interested, I tried this ROM last night. After swapping to the Dorimanx kernel, there seemed to be a lot of love for Rootbox on the the Dorimanx XDA forum, so thought would try it and see. Based on JB 4.1.2 - Built from RootBox Sources (Teamhacksung, CM & AOKP) HSPA+ Support A2DP...

In attempt to get down with the kids, downloaded this from Google play. Apparently it boosts audio quality, and there certainly seemed to be a noticeable improvement. But it warns to do nandroid first as uninstalling doesn't remove it from system files......after installing, I rather bizarrely...

Zippyshare.com - com.android.vending-3.7.15.apk oh. don't get excited, it had already auto updated on my phone. :shot: worth checking you've got latest version though.

Hey guys. Was getting a bit frustrated with poor Wi-Fi and lack of deep d sleep with Siyah so giving Neak a blast. First impressions seem ok. Has anyone used this for a while? How do others find it compared to Siyah?
