New phone installing apps - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Broke the screen on my Note 2 and just got the replacement from Asurion. The last time this happened to me I went through the stock setup process and all of my apps were downloaded automatically. This time no such luck. I tried resetting the phone again but that didn't work. It is really annoying to have to manually download all 200 apps. Any way to force the auto install process.?

Good question. Same happened to me. I only had trial version of helium at the time unfortunately so I couldn't just restore everything. Really glad I had my app data though... Good luck.

I haven't looked into it too closely, it seems random to me- sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't(I'm always happy when it does). I don't know if there is an apk or some functionality that some devs leave in and some take out of their roms.... or else if it is just kind of random. But I always do choose the backup and restore options when signing into the market.

GS3 keeps reading everything

I'm having a problem, I started plying around with Google Now earlier, having fun seeing what it would do for me. After that, now something keeps reading everything aloud in a lot of the apps on the phone as I touch them. Talkback is off. Any ideas?
Have you tried restarting the phone? Are you sure this isn't Samsung S voice that's dictating to you? Check accessibility section in settings.

I found the answer elsewhere, I allowed websites to install scripts in the settings and that's what was doing it.

Android update

I am rooted and have been since I got my GS3 in October. I tried a few roms before deciding on freegs3 v3.0.0 as my daily rom. It's very stable, fast and bug free for me. Just this morning I got a notification that there was an android update. This is the first one I've got since rooting this phone. I know not to accept it, I'm just wondering all of a sudden I'm getting this. What do I do too doable notifications of android update? I'm pretty sure I have Samsung push notifications turned off.
Thanks in advance guys.

TWRP doesn't see new roms

Every time I fry to flash a new Rom I can't find it on my drive even though it is definitely there. I've been flashing since my G1 and have never had this problem. I suppose I could use Odin but u don't want to. Anyone else see this?

Most of the time they are saved in data/media/downloads

An obvious one, but check to make sure which storage you're using, internal / external...?

What's new!

I haven't been on XDA for months and my phone is severely deprived. I believe the last time I flashed a rom was back in October. Well since then, it has been very very slow. I've rejected countless updates that Sprint has tried pushing to me but it has been nagging me for too long and I finally have some time to get things caught up.
So...in short...what's new? What's the latest and greatest rom that you guys would recommend that I try? Anything else new that I have missed in the past few months as far as groundbreaking tweaks and all that? I'm constantly dropping calls lately for whatever reason...
Umm....yeah

Also, dropped calls very likely means that LTE is being expanded/upgraded in your area so be happy that they're dropping !
^ That looks like a great rom and it's a very cool port but I'm looking for something less hands-on that doesn't require me to stay up to date with constant flashing.
Just look around...?

Constant freezing/rebooting

My phone is constantly rebooting(no matter what room I'm on) and sometimes it freezes and then reboots(and when it does, I end up with totally different battery percentage). I'm not sure wtf is going on.

I'm not sure if your asking for help, or just wanting to vent. But if your asking for help....
Battery percent being different after a reboot is very common with these phones. Many people have reported freezing and lock ups while using Agat 1.4.3 kernel, and others report the same while using CrossBreeder. Others report that using AIO 4.0 with AOSP lockscreen while having rotation enabled have caused the same.
You could also be experiencing hardware issues..
More information on your part would greatly improve any helping diagnose your troubles.
If you are asking a question, please ask a mod to move this to the QA section.
