For me no Flash means no Jelly Bean

I'd love to try Jelly Bean but I need flash. I'm a big follower of college sports and they use GameTracker to show the progress of games. It's exclusively in Flash.
Until CBS changes GameTracker to run without Flash then I'll be stuck on versions of Android that will run Flash.
Bummer.

You got it all wrong. I have a galaxy nexus with the latest jelly bean leak and flash works without any problems.
They just said that they wont support any further release of android after ice cream... but i can assure you it still works with jelly bean

Thanks for the reply. I guess, once camera support is out, I should give it a try.
There'd be nothing to lose since I could always revert back to 4.0 if Flash suddenly stopped working.

You'll be fine. Flash SHOULD work just like it does now, the only change will be that if you have issues Adobe won't help. I've never once had an issue, so for me nothing changes.

don't hold your breath. remember we're still waiting on camera support on an outdated version of the OS.

There is already a thread for discussing Jelly Bean, please continue all further discussion there.

Fused Location App and JB 4.2.1

Hi All,
For those that do not know anything about Fused Locations app, a small history:
I install the [ROM][4.2.1] Slim Bean - I9000 [RC2]
The problem was that it stuck in boot loop.
After many cleans, wipes, and whatever is there before installing AND factory resets the outcome was:
I used app quarantine, to disable the Fused Location App and it seems that the slim bean does NOT start if you disable an app that "locate your position through GPS or wifi to save battery"?????????!!!!!!!

}
I decide to check more 4.2.1 roms
Results :
Fireworm
RemICS JB 4.2
TsunamiX
Backed
AndroSlim
ALL with the same issue, you quarantine that app they are not working.
ALL CM 10.1
If there is a NON CM rom, please, suggest it and I ll try it.
I went back to Slim Bean 4.1.2 to realize that you can not use that rom because the keyboard is crushing and without a keyboard.
BUT, I had a keyboard.apk and I manage to run the rom.
PS
In the next couple of days, I ll try with back up versions of 4.2, 4.1 and the help from Titanium Backup, to use as much features of the 4.2 to the 4.1. I ll also can post the apps that I blocked with "app quarantine" and my phone is stable, fast, good battery life without any issues.
If you like to see all that please leave a comment

Is this a dev post?

I kind of hoped that I m not going to debate irrelevant questions, but, what kind of thread you think it is?
People come to dev post to install software to their device. If that software is monitoring them as the stock rom do, at my point of view it may be a reason NOT to download the "new shiny roms", (roms that belong in dev).
If there was something like it, where do you suppose to find it? FAQ?

you took my advice and tried other roms then thought it would be down to google :thumbup:

[Q] GPS-problem with mathkid's matrix kernel 9.0

Hi,
In know this doesn't belong here, but since I haven't posted yet, I'm not allowed to write in the corresponding thread.
I installed matr1x kernel 9.0 on my n4 yesterday and got massive problems with GPS. The GPS-location needs VERY long to settle if is working at all. I had the best conditions for GPS since i was walking outside in pretty open space with a clear blue sky....
Anyone got the same problems or any ideas what could be wrong, since i found nothing on this topic according to the matr1x kernels anywhere.
Okay. 9.0 is new, but someone must have noticed it if it is a general problem with the kernel.
the power-management is astonishing and I would gladly keep the kernel for that.
regards...

Although I have only used the kernel for a couple of hours I've found the GPS to be spot on and very quick. Some have said changing the location in your build.prop to your correct country helps?
System>build.prop

thanks. I'll give it a try if the problem reoccures. For now i just reflashed the kernel and everything works fine again. maybe TouchWake was the problem since that was the only thing i changed since flashing yesterday. I will try again and see if the gps-break reoccurres.

Very bad WiFi connection since a week

Hello, since a week my connection is very bad.
I think it's after formatting to f2fs.
Now I'm using ext4 and a TouchWiz Rom but the connection is still bad. I think after changing to TouchWiz it was good for one day.
I'm Facebook and instagram the pictures loading after an hour and it takes very long to download an app from playstore.
It does take very long to show the pictures in play store. But after wating till the download starts, it downloads at normal speed. Don't know why [emoji15]

Wrong section. Post in QnA please. Btw you seriously waited an hour for FB picture to show?!?

Didn't know that I was in the wrong section. I want sure that my phone started the thread because of the internet problems.
I didint wait so long but it feels like that.
Here an example

It does take very long. Before it was not so slow. Only my device is so slow.
My tablet get an good connection.
Any solution ?
I flashed TouchWiz because I thought its an problem with aosp
Sorry i forgot a few information.
Note 3 9005 LTE
Android 5.0
Newest Bootloader
Router settings ok
Only with my note 3
Maybe since I formatted to f2fs
Now i got ext4 but its still the same

Try FXR wifi fix and rescue from playstore. See if it works.

Keep or Lose MF9?

HI all,
I'm looking to flash my phone with a newer ROM. I'm currently on one I installed quite a while ago. I'm now a bit confused on which ROMs I can and can't use.
My phone is MF9 according to what I've been able to locate in the about settings and phone info programs. I keep seeing stuff about OD2, but I'm not really sure what that means for me. Also, isn't there something about updating and it doing something to the boot loader?
Do I need to update to OD2 to use newer ROMs?
Will it lock my boot loader and what will that do to my ability to change ROMs later?
Lastly, and I know it's a matter of personal preference, what ROM would you recommend? I'm just looking for something stable. Though good battery life and fast would be nice too.
Thanks,
-Jeff

OD2 didn't lock my bootloader. The updated bootloader actually means you'll be free to use more recent custom ROMs.
As for ROM recommendation, usually it should be a no-brainer for me to give CM, but CM on this phone drains battery a bit too fast, so I'll hold back on that.
Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM12.1
[WARNING: XDA Premium 4.0.13+ lacks Signature function - do not update]

Thanks Andy,
So, if I do an Odin update to OD2, I should still be safe on my phone? That takes a load off my mind.
I did CM back on my Nexus S4G years before I got this phone. It wasn't bad. The battery life thing is a deal breaker though. Now that I know I can safely update without screwing things up too much I'll play around with a few. My main thing is to update my wife's phone so that she doesn't have problems. She always insists on matching phones so I can help her with stuff LOL
-Jeff

Only AT&T and Verizon lock bootloaders, you could try my ROM, Wicked X, in the Android Development section. Very stable and battery friendly.
