how u do with facebook app, u use it ?

I think not so much people are using gingerbread anymore. I don't use. Because some applications I want are not compatible with gb or don't give effective usage in gingerbread. So many people keen on using other custom roms.

facebook....

I suppose you got a Galaxy W too, just like most others in the "Galaxy W" forum.
If you feel bored oneday, Someone (e.g. me) can help you getting your phone rooted. As for our phone its a aproved and quite safe procedure( i know it's necessary to keep in mind something can go wrong by different reasons), it's not necessarry to collect informations for the next three months. If you know what your phone and what your computer is you'll just need an usb cable and a working internet connection. In the case all you heard about "rooting" is the word itself you know your phone type and are REALLY WILLED TO READ, you will get it work in less than two hours for the Samsung i8150

Yes, I used CM7 and Manisalee45! ROM also. the last is the best GB rom IMO. Now I'm on Cm9.

i don't, cm 10.1 is a great stuff

[Q] Does android run bugless on touch pro?

Im sorry if this was asked but i'm on CSD internet connection.
so: can i run android (froyo preferably) on my touch pro without bugs? or what are the things that do not work on it?

Without bugs? No software is without bugs. With that said, there are many 'non-working' things. Read the main thread, it's got all these words that will answer this question. First 4 posts are great, after that the search feature works wonders.
Also, what happened to trying it out? This is for fun/testing, it's not meant to replace WinMo. So if that's what you're looking for (WinMo replacement) I'd look elsewhere. Like a new phone

"Bugless" is preference, IMO. Sure it runs on my Fuze as long as I stay within the guideliness from the link mentioned in the previous post. If you are looking for benchmarks, you might be better off with a device that actually comes with Android (also IMHO).
By the way what are you attempting to do with this?
Use it as my primary OS. i'm willing to sacrifice the camera for it.

There's a lot of other little quirks, I wouldn't use it as your primary OS - unless your phone isn't used as a phone of course
Most of the problems people truly have usually are related to the phone sleeping and missing calls, or rebooting in a call etc. Stuff that's mission-critical so-to-speak - I know some that use the phone completely unactivated and love Android full time. There's also some I know that have the phone activated and just don't care and use it all the time.
I'd say for most 'normal' people, it's not ready to use full time as your primary OS. But as with anything tech-related - try it for yourself! Don't let my opinion make your decision, only you will be able to tell. That's the greatest thing about this whole project, doesn't damage the phone, no need to flash anything... Try before you buy, except it's free anyways
welll I had it!
When i bought the phone (secound hand or third ) it had it installed already. It was froyo. I playd with it until it crashed! I had several runs until someday when i noticed that sounds ain't working no more. why? don't know.
nevermind...
OFFTOPIC:
I have another problem @ wich i don't find help.
I'm trying to dump the ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427507&page=22 here but I get this error. can someone help me?

It's a lite WinMo ROM that auto loads Haret from SD card the author is MichyPrima
As mentioned in THIS post. In my opinion, the closest that RAPH has been reported to run from nand. Keeping in mind this doesn't actually run from nand.
Just wondering if you tried it or not...

[Q] Hello please someone answer my questionS ...

hi,
so i bought my htc one x few days ago from affordablemobile.co.uk on 3 (three) network , as i am kind of FRESH to android phones please help me out in a newbie way , thanks
1)how do i update my phone to 1.28 without using the default way because my carrier hasn't updated it yet
2)some games like gta 3 , cosmos hd ... stop unexpectedly ( without starting up the game ) and i have to mention that a advert comes before showing that massage which can be skipped AND i have to say that i haven't payed for the apps as I'm not sure they would work on the device {and i got them from 4shared }.
3)And to be honest I've read a lot about rooting , custom rom , etc / what shall i do , is it worth going through the trouble to root and ... or its not a big deal i should just leave it
4)should i unlock my phone or leave it on 3 .
thank u very much for reading/ please do post anything u know as this will help me very much to improve my skills and to help others .
{if u need more info to help please inform me }
Shame on you for not paying for games. We have to support the devs. And when you not pay for games that are suppose to be paid that is stealing. Come on, the games are only a few bucks each.
Sorry but try and find someone to help you.
but what if it didn't work if a buy it , i might have to send back the phone to exchange it or something
and yes i do understand bruv , i don't even torrent movies and do you thing 1 or 2 pounds its a lot for when i own one x ?

Bro welcome to android. As per ur issue listen.... Till u get comfortable with android do not think of rooting etc etc. Mk sure u download how to and read carefully how to use it. If u r on stock u cannot destroy the fone remember if smthng goes worse jst reset. Mk sure you take backup of data. Many apps n games do not work with ics give time to devs and whatever u buy try lite version first or read reviews of app..... Greetings to u bro for android u made rite choice

You can get a refund if it doesn't work. You can always email the developer or google around for info on the game you plan to buy to see if it works on your device.
In relation to your original question, you can do a couple of things:
1. You can wait until the update is available in your region/country/carrier
2. Read a lot about rooting. If you follow instructions after a lot of research you will able to root your device and install custom ROMs.
Custom ROMs are far better than stock ROMs as the devs tweak the ROM so it will be faster than the stock. Furthermore, you get great support no matter what custom ROM you choose.
thanks for replying , but u see firstly a game like gta 3 doesn't start which I'm pretty sure it should work ! secondly , i obviously can root device following the instructions but what are the major effect that i would see coz to be honest i don't mind the ui and i enjoy it

if you buy an app and it doesn't work, go back to its page on the market and there's an option to get a refund. However it's only there for fifteen minutes after purchasing.
If your connection meant that the download takes longer than 15 minutes, just send a message to Googles support team for the market; theyre always very helpful.

and for the back button this was really a problem until i update it now it doesn't occur so often as it used to.

1. One reason why SGY reboots (based on my experience) is if the system's free memory gets too small. As what I have learned from Zeppelinrox is that Android caches apps that are running in the background but the problem is that sometimes it gets locked in the memory and causes free memory to shrink. If this is the case, the system will be forced to do a reboot to clear memory.
2. This happens to me if my hands are sweaty and/or if the phone's digitizer is greasy. If this happens to you, try to wipe your phone and clean your hands. Also, you might want to use a matte type (anti-finger print) screen protector as this type of film resists moisture and oil/grease unlike the clear type film.
3. App FC's can be caused by:
-slow SD Cards. This applies if your app is installed on SD card, this is simmilar to delayed read/write in Windows OS.
-permission issues
-lack of free memory
-cracked apps(I'm not saying you pirate apps)
BTW: Most of the Custom ROM available are pre-rooted. What custom ROM are you using which as what you said is not rooted(your phone)?
PS. My reply is based on what I experienced with my phone, I may be right or I may be wrong. Anyway, you can ask Google if you have doubts

Worth it= unlock+root?

I know that it is possible to revert all the root, unlocking and so on. I'm just wondering about warranty.
I know what OnePlus says about it BUT! I am worried that if my device decides to suddenly break, OnePlus will see that my device has been rooted and I will have a harder time getting it through warranty even though warranty is not void by rooting.
I am not planning to do something seriously weird with my phone. Just want to try out a few popular kernels and roms. But the warranty situation scares me. Any thoughts?
Ask One Plus.
If I buy an Android phone it's for liberty it gives me.
Stop let your fears drive you.

Of Course i have done that but the answers are very formal and pasted. Just wanted to know if someone wanted to offer their thoughts about what is even possible from OnePlus point if view.
I haven't bothered yet... The stock ROM is fine. Not worth the effort and potential hassle to get a different colored battery icon or 0.5% faster benchmark scores...
Let me ax you... What features do you need Root for that cannot be had without it?
That will tell you whether you need to root or not...
yes it is worth it, u do not void ur warranty so there is no reason not to, once u root and unlock ur bootloader, install TWRP and make backup, u can then start to tinker and download many different apps like xposed to change things around, there are endless possibility with being rooted, also u can get updates quicker at times, and the people who whine and say their phone is not working or the update killed their phone, u just backup all ur apps with a backup app like titantium backup (pretty popular) then do a clean flash of the rom and u r good to go, u can remove system apps u don't use and use up battery, u can download custom kernels to adjust cpu speeds for better battery life, free apps with lucky patcher (i don't think i was supposed to mention that though), with xposed u can bypass the passcode and use fingerprint on start. Themeing different apps if u r into that. just so much to do, also there is no hassle like the guy above stated, u just download the toolkit and u r done in like 5 min.

Mostly for battery but also for gestures. Really like the gestures feature i have seen in RR, and maybe in more roms than RR? It also seems that arter97 cm ROM is well optimized both with his kernel, and ROM. I don't care about benchmarks. But the overall feel seems faster with that ROM according to XDA
I haven't done it myself either, since most of the reasons for which I unlock and install custom ROM and root are available (adblock, aggressive doze, oxygen OS customizations, etc)

That is so true! The stock OxygenOS is buttery smooth!
Yes.
Absolutely worth rooting (want a good backup?) and warranty cannot be voided because of rooting (http://bit.ly/2bsmV1T)
Oneplus has no problems with rooted phones as i did a warranty service for my OPO last year.
So yes it is worth rooting and unlocking to enjoy the freedom of what Android and OnePlus has to offer..!

For me, Xposed and EX Kernel Manger are the biggies. Of course you could install a kernel without using an app, but the app has OTA updates plus some other nice features.
So what kernel+rom is the best regarding smoothness and battery life compared to stock? I would also really like to know what roms have the gestures feature that the RR rom has. my goal by coming from iOS is to access apps as quickly as possible without having to go through folders and ****.

That S8 port is not necessarily for the g920p and has been said to cause bricks. Be cautious. I am still running Rick's rom with my cam mod and it probably about as good as it will get besides some here and there updates and tweaks along with magisk and Xposed modules. The s6 is a **** phone tho. Non removable battery and mine always has overheating issues do to supposed a57 chip issues or something. Unnecessary rushed Eight core at that. Not related to modding. Even after a replacement on stock did same. If you don't experience that (easy with cam use), your a lucky one. But mainly to answer your question...I highly doubt. Maybe, but most likely not.

Resolution problem (720 hd, unchangeble)
And the biggest one so far, no heads up notifications
I know it all could be solve installing the v2.zip of the rom, but what i really one is a rom with an active developer and updates
Maybe im asking for too much, but then i see how the other versions get all of that and get depressed xd

I know the feeling. Main reason it also Sprint. People are getting tired of their crap. I have issues even with my new phone. Carrier mainly.
