There are double sounds showing when choosing ringtone, etc. Strange for a official build no? Also I notice the screen touch sound is the older GB one i think.
Anyone know of a hack to get integrated tether to work?

Just go download them from the T-Mobile ROM then. Put them on your sdcard. It's not terribly difficult.

Yeah its gone, But I think Its only cosmetic and never an actual bug. People have OS super high and get 4-6 hours of screen time. I dont think it has anything to do battery.

So does this mean an actual ota is in the near future? And if so can we update to it and get root back? Or am I getting ahead of myself? Lol

Yeah freaking right! I wish! I only get 2 hours screen on time at most. Even GB but I think it's because Sprint just sucks. I dunno but it's depressing. I know I got better battery life before but mo matter what I flash, full wipes and all I still get bad battery life lately.

That's because that's what most everybody gets, and that number is really pretty good. nobody will get 6 hours of screen on time with a stock battery...probably not even with an extended battery. I think the Android OS bug is real, at least I've noticed pretty big decrease since going to these ics alphas. Since I've tried the leaked official...battery has been tons better.

Need a little help regarding kernel/radio???

Apologies ive posted in general it shouldve been in Q&A sorry, Hi, I updated from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4 stock yesterday but my download and internet speed was terrible, so I flashed android revolution 3.0 and the problem still stayed the same, so this morning I flashed android revolution 2.15 or whatever which is 4.0.2 but my problem still remains??? My download speeds are crap I'm only hitting like 10kbps sometimes???
Now I've looked in about phone and my baseband version is still XXLA2 , is this where my problem is coming from?? If so how do I change it??
Is baseband the kernel/radio???
I wish I knew the answer but just recently got my gnex and am a bit unsure of what to do???
If anyone could help I would be most appreciative
Thank you

The baseband is the radio, I've unlocked my phone and use fastboot to switch between radio versions.

Yes, you can flash a radio in either fastboot mode, or CWM. See the Baseband sticky here.
P.S. As far as terminology goes (simplified a bit):
baseband = radio image
kernel = boot image

you can flash radios & kernels through clockwork... just download the flashable zip and flash it like if it was a ROM in CWR

Radio flashing questions.

So I am on Verizon and I see there is an update for the radio in the development section. There are a lot of people that say its an improvement and a few people that say is made matters worse.
My question is if I do the update how do I go back to the original radio?
And if worse come to worse could I just do the "back to stock for replacement/repair" method? Idk if this method manages the radios but any input would help.

Backup your current radio. Do a nandroid backup. Then flash new radio. Just pay attention to the build #. Like mine is jroo3l so that's the radio I'm using. I've never had a issue updating mine.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

If you want to go back to the other radio, just flash it back.

How do I back up radio? Or where do I find my build #s radio?

custom combination of radios
Some users have reported positive experiences with the 4.0.2 CMDA radio (EK05) and the newest LTE radio (FG02). I'm assuming its not as easy as downloading both the 4.0.2 & 4.1 radios, unzip, remove the cdma radio from the 4.1 folder, copy and paste the 4.0.2 and rezip > flash.
any suggestions on how to go about testing custom combinations of radios?

There are hybrid radios out there where you can just flash them. I went from a factory radio 404 to a hybrid 404 to a hybrid 411. The only real differences I noticed were how long it took to switch between 3g and 4g.

Don't do it if you think you might ever want to be able to use Odin as a recovery option. Once you upgrade to 4.3 on AT&T you're stuck if something bad happens to your phone you're going to have a hard time fixing it.
If yours sure you want to do it then Odin your phone back to an early firmware as soon as it boots it will force you to take an update. It may be 4.1.2 or it may be 4.3? Not sure but you just let the phone update through ota. Or alternately there are files with instructions in threads labeled with names similar to 4.3 OTA official.

Well right now there are some disadvantages, imho, to upgrading to 4.3 stock, once the bootloader is updated you cannot downgrade to any other build at this time, but that is a call for u to make, if you want to ota to 4.3 you have to get on stock 4.1.2 which you do through odin and then ota, not what I would do at this time just to many horror stories for my taste on 4.3 right now

It is all up to you. I have 4.3 and am happy with it. It is very stable and has decent battery life. It isn't without issues though. I have problems with it giving me the weak wifi signal message or that my Internet is too slow (10Mbps DSL? Slower than some but certainly no slouch) when it does this it disconnects and I have to manually tell it to reconnect. The other thing is in my battery stats built in the rom not all of the apps are being logged only things like screen on time, cell standby, wifi, bluetooth, basic phone stuff but none of the apps???
Why I wish I hadn't done it? Because I lost the ability to be able to recover my phone with Odin and the ability to do whatever it is I want to with the bootloaders.

Read the stickys here and in the general section it will have nearly all of the information and tools you need. Then you can get firmware to flash in Odin from http://www.sammobile.com go there register for an account click firmwares in the top bar of the site and search for your phones model number such as mine is SGH-I747 and a Canadian phone or Mexican phone would be SGH-I747M.

Give it a few minutes to try to boot then pull the battery, boot to recovery and do a factory reset. if that doesn't work then flash the odin file again.
When you do get the 4.3 it will take several minutes to boot it will look like its stuck on the boot screen but be patient it will likely boot eventually.

No it shouldnt take ten minutes but 4.3 takes considerably longer than all the roms I have used in the past.
You are still at the stage of flashing 4.1.1 correct? if it didnt boot just reflash it(uncheck the box for auto reboot so you have to pull the battery out after you flash it) then go to recovery and do a factory reset, then reboot the phone, it should boot this time.
You did check to make 100% sure you downloaded the correct 4.1.1 file for the phones model? right?
Don't mean to make anybody sound silly just trying to figure out exactly whay is going on.

Upgrading to T-Mobile 4.3 via OTA

Just checked for updates as described in other threads and it found the latest 4.3 update. I have read both positive and negative responses to the update. Some found things they used in 4.1.2 that are being taken away. Some like the new features in 4.3. It will vary from person to person whether the ROM is better for them or not. Fact is, all devices (current and future) are moving forward.
Should I just install the update? Should I make a copy of my current setup with one of the recoveries, then odin back, and run triangle away?

Strange. I went ahead and updated. Even after doing two complete resets, I still have SU app from 4.1.2. I guess it carried the program during the upgrade process?

it basically dirty flashed the new update over your 4.1.2. I honestly didn't care much about the KNOX boot loader since my warranty is already over. but, I find not having to flash devil kernel so much easier w/ less lag.

Hopefully someone will develop something that resets the KNOX counter. Triangle worked for 4.1.2, but does not work in 4.3 for me.
BTW, what 4.3 ROMs do you like, since we have the new bootloader? I just installed TWRP and trying to decide on a ROM.

So I have a question I hqvent been on in a while and last I checked the newest update came with a locked bootloader. I know it did for the s3. I liked the newest software on the s3 but I jus5 cant stand all that bloat and not having full control of my phone. That s3 was killing me. I just got my note2 back from samsung with a nice new screen and of coure they forgot to send the spen with it. Not that I use the stupid thing anyway but still come on. Anyway is the bootloader locked on this one also and how hard is that to get around?

theyre for different companies i believe. as how ours (T889) also has a T889v ( i think thats the right letter) version as its for a different conpany. I installed using the ATT one. there's really no difference because you're just going to flash a tmobile modem over it.

I just got my note2 back from samsung with a nice new screen and of coure they forgot to send the spen with it. Not that I use the stupid thing anyway but still come on. Anyway is the bootloader locked on this one also and how hard is that to get around?

yes the boot loader is locked. I don't believe there's a workaround it yet. but I'm even sure. you can scroll around through the threads and see if there is. what I did was just update it anyways and tripped my KNOX boot loader to ox1. I didn't have warranty anyways so I'm not tripping over it. and then I just rooted it, flashed cwm and started to flash ROMs.

Thank you. So is the root process the same? Usually i flash twrp with odin then install su permissions then I flash away. Or do I have to use another method? Really all I want is the modem software so I could just wait till someone pulls it out they usually do. I always liked c heckin out the latest stock rom but always changed back to aokp.

I wrote instructions on how I rooted. there could be other methods to. this is easiest for me! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562994
if you're going to end up on aokp, you should just stay on the 4.1.2 boot loader. the update to me is really only for TW roms because the stock ROMs are working just fine w/o the new boot loader.
