[Q] What Is Your Setup For Paranoid Android That Gives You The Ultimate Tablet?

I've been going back and forth with roms but I think I'm going to play around with Paranoid Android for a little while longer until we get a bootable JB port.
What does your current setup look like, and what tablet apps/tweaks/games have to installed to make your T989 feel/look like your ideal tablet?
Feel free to screenshot or just respond.
Thanks. :good:

This is my current setup/look

Normal setup didn't really tweak anything. Put everything on tablet optimized. The icon setup is the folder look by default. Just changed the wallpaper to go with the soft keys. Gonna play with it some more later on. I like the way it looks right now.

Last weekend I flashed paranoid, but couldn't get my it to look as I want, and also I had a number of issues. My work needs me to have a functional daily driver phone. decided to flash back to darkside. Im waiting for the next update of paranoid. Hoprefully, I'll have better luck with it. When it comes out I'll try it again.

Yep. We can flash skyrocket roms and they can flash ours. If your comfortable flashing roms in general its nothing different. Just make a backup before you do anything.

I used non touch. I haven't used touch cwm since I got my t989 back. Also download the dark side wipes if you haven't already. They play a major part.

Anyone have Ubuntu running on their GS3?

And if so is there any good how-tos? I've searched for a little while now and can't find any CDMA ones in the GS3 section. Interested in trying it out if it's functional or purely for nerd reasons.

I've been wondering the same thing lately! Would be pretty cool to see

Look for Complete Linux Installer in the market. I used it to get ubuntu running on my ns4g and kindle fire. I showed it to my linux professor last year and he was amazed. I don't see any reason why it won't work on our gs3's, I should try it again myself. Really simple to do actually as all the instructions are there for you.

Well you do use a vnc server but that's only so you can see the interface. It's all running on your phone independent of anything else.

What is special about ubunt.

Would Ubuntu completely replace the Android OS or can you dual-boot it so that you can run Ubuntu while docked via MHL onto a monitor or laptop? When I say dual-boot, I'm referring to something like this:

Hi Guys
i have ARHD 15 but it saying my device is not compatible...do i need to upgrade tp ARHD17?

Think you need stock, but could be wrong (my GNex is rooted on 4.2.1 and it works fine). It runs on ALL versions of Android from 2.2 (FroYo) onwards...just go look on the Play Store for more information as opposed to asking silly questions on here. And it's for UK-only, so you all know

Tethering w/o root

Anyway i can tether w/o root on stock jb?
and if not how do i do it w/o installing a custom rom?

Don't think its possible without root. This is the quickest and easiest way to do it tho. To get root head here and download the zip.
http://download.chainfire.eu/233/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-d2spr-d2spr-sphl710.zip
Once downloaded, extract to desktop. Put phone in download mode and plug in. Go to where you extracted that and open odin (building block icon).
Load the cf-autoroot-l710.tar.md5(name may differ slightly) into PDA slot and hit start. This will take all of about 1 min. When you boot back up head here for the wifi tether apk...
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390208427046731813
Install and run. You should not have to change any settings in it. That Should be it

I hear Foxfi works really well, but i personally haven't used. Rooted of course. Rooting may be the best and cheapest option in my mind

You can tether over USB without root even on JB. Look in the Market for ClockworkMod Tether (no root). You do also need to install something on your PC. I've used and it works well.

So, are we getting KitKat or what?

IF only the Nexus 5 would support sprint... lol looks like my amazing Optimus G will be around.
Even if we never get 4.4 I don't see a reason why our device would become outdated.
Who ever sees slowdowns on our device? Anyone ever see issues that would mean you have to have 4.4? My device seems just fine for me even if we don't get the official 4.4.. I am happy with my device..

WiFi was working just fine. The camera looks exactly the same as 4.3 to me. I didn't do a whole lot of testing because I needed to get my service back, so I'm currently LGNPSTing back to stock. Feel free to try it if you like, but you'll have to LGNPST to get your service back. And if it bricks your device you can't blame me.
I'll just be patient and wait for a Sprint release or go get a Nexus 5... Haven't decided yet.
