Question- choppy/unstable Bluetooth?

K so when I fist got my gnex I could use it with my Bluetooth speakers from a far range I could be like two rooms away and could still here it fine and it would be smooth. That was stock. Now that I'm rooted and running aokp it is horrible. I can't be more than 4 or 5 feet from the speakers without it cutting in and out and being really unusable.... would this be the rom (aokp M5) or the kernel (latest Franco nightly)?

Could be either, especially if AOKP is using the wrong bcmdhd.cal for the device.

You answered your own question. Go back to stock if you need things to work properly. Custom roms are experimental at best, since they introduce all kinds of problems, including app incompatibility, hardware instability and broken features (like voicemail notifications not working).
Good luck.

Sorry it took long lol I'm at work so I had to go on chrome and try to get it on there then I had to zip it with androzip ....

Looking at it now.

Well, it is the right one. I know the Verizon version has been modified to fix choppy BT. It may or may not work for you. You are welcome to try it, but back up your current one.

Okay thanks I will try it when I get home

This is the first phone in 6 years that I've run out of things to flash...a good thing anyone else got that trouble?

Erm.. Flash AOKP and you won't ever be bothered to switch ROMs.

Some of the devs have nightlies, so no, i haven't had that issue! Always something new with a/multiple new feature/features. Plus with theme manager and the amount of roms supporting it, i can go straight on performance and then easily pick my theme.

When you guys flash new ROMs like crazy are you just counting on TI to restore it all quickly? Seems like everyone warns about TI restoring system settings yet people flash roms like crazy.

? I just use my nandroids. The only time I use titanium is for specific apps to carry over.restoring system settings can be problematic

Learn how to start building your own roms. Why use a rom someone else made?

I'd like to flash Provision, but I don't believe there is support for the i515, yet. I've been wanting to try Liquid Smooth, but AOKP just suites me perfectly...I'm scared to make the switch.

no, it was meant to provide clean android experience without skins and bloatware, and ease of rooting and unlocking bootloader for those who care about it
there's nothing wrong with flashing, but flashing several ROMs daily is kind of stupid, people end up not using their phone as a smartphone, instead it becomes just another toy

Nope, as a "developer phone", it's meant for developers to have a stable and clean platform on which to base and write their apps for

Liquid is basically the same as AOKP feature wise with a few more and the ability to choose between the notification power widget and the AOKP toggles

I've ported it to the AT&T S3 but haven't made a thread for it yet because I have one bug left in it, call audio doesn't work. I could port it to the Sprint S3 and upload it in this thread if anyone wants to test it. Call audio should be the only bug, well if there's any bugs in CM10 those will be present too.

The more ROMs the better
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

well im personally using aokp right now. it takes care of a lot of the cm10 bugs and it has a few customizations that i really enjoy already baked in (i.e. center clock and circlemod battery). the main reason i want the paranoid android is the in depth ui changing. and with jellybean now having 3 different uis baked in id love to go through and tinker with all of that. i really want the 7inch notification bar ui and the tablet camera ui ( i love the option wheel look). but just like it was mentioned earlier, more roms is never a bad thing but the only way i see me giving up aokp is for some PA love lol

Yup it is pretty badass

[Q] Questions about Telus 4G Samsung Galaxy S II™ X..

Hi all,
I'm going to buy a Telus 4G Samsung Galaxy S II™ X, However, I have some question:
1. Can I unlock the bootloader and install any ROM?
2. What is the latest official firmware? Is Samsung going to issue a JB?
3. How is the battery life?
4. Any advice
Thank you in advance

1. Yes
2. Telus has released 4.0.3 I believe. JB is supposed to be official for this phone.
3. It's ok, maybe gets through the work day, depending on usage.
4. If you do flash a ROM make sure it's for the t989 and not the international s2.
Enjoy.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989

Thank you very much.

Only thing I have to add is that the Koodo ROM floating around here doesn't work well with Telus as it has the Koodo AP baked into it by default. I'm loving CM 10.0.0 on this phone.

I'm on Telus and the Koodo ROM is amazing. You just have to manually add the APN (settings are listed in the thread).
CM10 is great too but TW ROMs have better call quality and battery life in my experience.
With Koodo V5 I typically do 2-2.5 hours of screen time, 1 hour of voice calling daily and I'm still over 20% when I plug it in at night.

the official android release is 4.0.4 now thats what I had when I purchased my SGH-T989D from Koodo. Telus and Koodo are practically the same I think?

Hey guys.
I'm also planning on buying the T989D. Could someone confirm that on the T989D we can flash any roms for T989 (t-mobile) ?
Can't wait to join the T989 community.

If you're new to the phone....I'd stick with t989 roms for now.
The telslu radio is the t989dtlle4.

Yeah I'll stick to T989 roms to be on the safe side. It's gonna take time to try them all out anyway

Forgot how smooth stock is.

So I have flashed many roms on my nexus. The last being xylon. That and purity ak kernel did great for a long time. After awhile with every ROM though it began getting laggy and started having FCS . I decided that I was going to restore my backup. While I was debating what ROM to flash next I couldn't help but notice how stable and snappy my stock backup was. If you can do without customization the stock ROM really is nice. No disrespect to the developers.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I'm done with custom ROM as well. I've been running stock for over two months and I love how well the device performs overall. No less of data, no crashes, no headaches. I haven't been visiting this website like I used to because I do not need to troubleshoot my phone constantly. Flashing ROM can be an addiction.

I can second that. Flashing is very addictive, I update all major custom roms whenever new build is released but eventually I restore my stock backup. The only feature from custom roms I really miss is t9 dialer. I don't like third party dialers from market. I tried to fix it by myself, never successful though. I like the smoothness of our stock which is unfortunately little affected by deodexing in our beloved custom roms. That's the price of customization / theming.

Yeah, since JB the stock image was always smoother. Plus it's flash and forget, in the custom ROM's you're always wondering what's new.

I agree with having root for blocking adds. Adaway ftw!
I myself am getting sick of flashing roms...something always happens when ya either update the rom or custom kernel.. Love the snappy feel of stock everything is so smooth.
But i have to say stock + root + nova launcher with all animations off for faster the light speed = Beastly. Only reason i cant go back to stock is because my my volume down key doesnt work after breaking when replacing the usb port.
So i cant take screenshots and ive tried all different types of screenshot apps and they all suck. So im loving aokp's option of adding the screenshot button to my navbar it really beats the option having it in the power option because ya can take screenshots of ya toggles if need be etc.
Anyway yeah as soon as i get my hands on the n4 thats when ill be running stock + root + launcher i think.

If you purchased a GNex, and are an XDA member, I guess I can't see the reason why you'd keep the phone stock. Lag, the occasional FC, etc. will still occur even on stock; normal maintenance and a few tweaks minimize these regardless of custom or stock.
Admittedly, there's a good case to be made for slowing down the # of flashes during a day/week/month. Typically, there are two types of flashers: those who flash for aesthetics/customization, and those who flash for noticeable gains in performance, batt. life, features. Fortunately, there are developers on XDA who cater to both groups....some even pleasing both groups @ the same time. More often than not, however, there is a lull between Android releases, which produces more ROMS geared towards customization. This contributes to the "bored" factor, and ultimately, threads such as these.
With no disrespect to the OP, if you're content with stock, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, and stock+root on the GNex is more than capable of providing a good Android experience. But, holding this phone, and subscribing to these forums leads one to the assumption that you're @ the very least CURIOUS about opening up the possibilities of this phone's capabilities.
