Well, I don't think Liquid is ready for prime time. Had to do a battery pull on my S3 because it would not do anything. I wonder if a debloated stock image is floating around...
 
Battery life in Liquid Smooth RC3 is not as good as expected. I think I am just going to nandroid back to stock and freeze some stuff...

If my phone boots up... :eek:

Bummer. Probably need to do my sisters as well as she is running the same rom.
 
Never had to restore a nandroid before. Here goes nothing. Guess I should put my One X on to charge in case I botch this.
 
Hey all, so here is your first taste of my news roundups. We call them "RSRSS" over in the GNex Watering Hole because I collect stories from my RSS feed :) Here is a link to previous posts here on AF. These are also put on my blog, along with other posts; feel free to follow me there and on various social media outlets, see my sig for details. Enjoy!

Have you by chance tried the Synergy ROM? I am really really enjoying it overall. Most gobbledeegoo has been removed and you have abilities to disable stuff quite easily even further in that ROM.

Plus, I think you can download a tool from the market that overclocks it to 1.9GHz :eek::eek::eek:

I can't vouch for that feature, as I have no need for 1.5GHz most of the time. :)

Steven is a sweetheart and works hard to embrace everyone. ;) :)

Razor - maybe time for your own rss thread. It's that good, I can't wait to check it every time! :)

Thanks for the kind words :) If that is the official decision of the staff, I'd be happy to do that, no problem! I was trying to solicit opinions from greens/reds earlier about how best to reach a wider audience.

My pleasure, you've more than earned them! :)

As for wider opinions from staff - compadre - srsly??

You must know me by now. Any resemblance to planned is strictly coincidental. :D

If your gut says it's time for your own thread, then I say you're dead right.

If you're unsure, then I say go for it and have a blast!

:) :) :)
 
Well well well.... on the back end of it work week and can't wait for the weekend to begin. I hope this fine Thursday finds you all in good health and happiness.

It was wonderful seeing so many new faces around here yesterday and I sheepishly did some exploring myself. Wow this is a big site! Lots of red faces in here as well. Welcome one and welcome all.

So, on to the morning coffee.... hope y'all enjoy!
