    Account analysis call from verizon

    Short funny story... got an "account analysis" call from verizon to "make sure I have the best plan for my usage" etc. etc. Took them a second to bring up my account info... and then she was like "oh wow! I've never seen anyone with this much data usage! I'm going to have to show this to my...

    [App] (JB) Night Clock + Multi-colors

    I'm looking for a few people to test this out on different devices (phones & tablets, nexus & non-nexus) and let me know if anything acts funny or doesn't look right. I'm new to app development, and this is my first (mostly) original app. I'd love feedback on the UI and layout/style, bug...

    [Verizon] [Mod/App] Desk Clock 4.2.2_r1 persistent night mode

    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...

    [Verizon] SU works for all apps [possibly solved]

    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...

    4.2.2 Camera rotate landscape/portrait lag

    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...

    [Verizon] bootloop framework-res.apk

    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...

    [Verizon] 4.2 Photosphere Camera for Verizon 4.1

    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...

    new to kernels, recommendations?

    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...

    Help [Solved] Browser sync issue

    tip: Pull stuff out of CWM 6 nandroid

    The new cwb backup format splits large files into multiple tars, for example data.ext4.tar, data.ext4.tar.a, and data.ext4.tar.b. I couldn't open some of these with 7zip, winrar, on windows or tar on ubuntu. However, if you just "cat" them together: cat data.ext4.tar data.ext4.tar.a...

    [Verizon] AOSP branches and build IDs

    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...

    Tethered network name increments

    I wasn't sure where to post this as it is a sort of windows 7 issue... I tether to my VZW Galaxy Nexus regularly via wifi. However, I just moved from a windows xp pro laptop to a windows 7 pro laptop. Now every time I turn my tethering off/on and reconnect, windows increments the network...

    Help Phone Idle eating battery?

    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...

    jellybean Wifi filesharing solution, samba?

    In the past I used Samba Filesharing over a tethered connection. It was fast, awesome, consistent and easy. I have an older version of wifi fileexplorer pro which works, but just not as easy to browse and I miss drag-n-drop. Love exploring the phone as a network drive. However samba...

    JB quirk - tethering does not show up in battery stats

    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...

    JB clock function changed. me like.

    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...

    Another jellybean gripe - camera sound

    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...

    [VZW] JB gripe - power consumption / weak charging

    I tether alot. I connect my phone via USB to another computer in my office and tether my laptop through it. Normally my phone battery would charge (slowly of course), but as long as I'm not streaming video or something, after a couple hours or so, the phone would be back to full charge (I don't...

    Help Just got JB official [VZW] brightness bug

    I always leave my phone on auto-brightness. I really liked the smooth transitions of 4.0.4, although I thought they were a bit slow sometimes... not with 4.1.1 they are way too fast and frequent! ARGH! pet peave! Any 4.1.1 roms with the 4.0.4 smooth brightness transisitons? Or other workarounds?
