I have just started making my own Rom. It's fairly easy to theme and change apps, but there are some very smart guys on here that can do amazing stuff to get things working for us.

If you're going to start making your own ROM's, I'd suggest taking someones ROM and then working on adding/removing/tweaking bits of it.

No, I think that a ROM is something that you put into your computer? Like a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM... Right? Wait... MY ANDROID CAN RUN ROMS!!! COOL!!! That means I can watch DVDs now!!
Guys, you're ALL WRONG. ROM = Really Old Man. WHY in the world would you put a Really Old Man inside of your phone? Is u crazy??!

It's not a troll. He's saying that he used the Chinese official 3.1 update.zip, which caused some apps to force close when he ran them. He then did a factory reset (which just deleted all userdata without touching the ROM), and that caused them to work again.
It isn't new info, but it's not trolling either - he is right.

He essentially wiped data/cache after installing the rom instead of before. Same effect.
Moral of the story -> stop being lazy and wipe, i know people read it in the instructions and just choose not to then complain about FC's and other "bugs"

Just came in d/l, installed. Had the coolest Android green gears ani. I have ever seen. Haven't had time to check it out. Keep your eyes open for it, do manual check for it.
Yeah the new spinning gears inside the Android during the update were really cool. I kinda freaked out when they froze for about a minute at the end of the process. Still the standard Android boot logo after the update though.
New version: Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2 (previously was on 4.010.11)
Does anyone know what this patch does? I happily report it does not break root access, nor did it break my Netflix library fix. Also, my same tun.ko still works.
Are you f-ing kidding?
You open a thread just to say that?

Can't we have a system for voting positively on posts, Please. That way useful information can be made more easily accessible. Down-voting wouldn't make much sense here since this is not a forum for opinions.
On a side note, I don't understand if people do not find something useful why do they still have to comment on it. It's not like you are forced to read each and every post or thread, so wasting people's time does not sound like a much valid argument.

Hey look im sorry but i was in a bad mood and maybe could have a bit more gentle. its just that i have been seeing threads ALL OVER THE PLACE about updates and there are sooo many dumb threads and duplicates that I got pissed off. Im sorry to you, the other guys can kiss my ass because they are behind (probably where they like it lol) because they are doing EXACTLY what I did if you think about it
I think there is a big need for more mods here.

Anybody that reads a tech website knows about it. Samsung's already put out a press release acknowledging the problem. When it's fixed, I'm sure they'll know about it before we will and put out another press release. Nothing's going to hijack your device that you don't allow. Don't visit sketchy websites, download iffy apps with a low number of users, and don't accept certificates from website's you're not comfortable with. For the time being I'd disable "Unknown sources" in settings and enable "Certificates" in the browsers security settings. Samir pointed out earlier the naive could get in trouble accidentally. We here aren't naive.
May be i used the wrong word what i ment was an normal user who is a layman when it comes to tech and believe there are many on this site to who come for advice.
Will i still be able to update to the jellybean ota after this root method?
