Then you have a poor flash. What rom are you exactly flashing . If you are also flashing kernel, flash it after you have successfully flash the rom
Try again to flash it and make sure you clear all the caches and wipe data/factory reset

i think its cause by the backup i create.Now i restore to factory default,no problem occurs. i guess i have to restore my apps and setting 1 by 1..

If you are restoring from Titanium Backup select ONLY restore missing apps. Do not restore system apps/data as it will overwrite your new rom
If you need to restore certain system data , eg contacts, messages etc - select restore system data : UNSELECT all, choose those system data you need select restore DATA only , never select restore app

ok!!! Flashing Franco 14.1 ^^

Oh ya... Btw can i know how to change the boot screen to stock? I dont like the Unicorn boot screen in AOKP  vmad.gif

Depending on which cook rom you installed, Use root explorer - browse to /system/media or /data/local - rename the bootanimation zip. You can also replace it with the original ICS boot animation - google for the original bootanimation zip. Reset phone and the cook rom animation zip will be replaced with just a simple Android single word animation

Not necessary. It is for further fine tuning if you need it

*i recommend uncle benny do a recommend for s2 and GNex, keep see this 2 question / thread =_=
and i know you sold your s2, but base on your mind compare it as you can smile.gif
*
Simple -SGS II is overall a better performer than GNex. I believe with ICS enabled it will surpass the GNex further
Only issue SGS II is "hotter" in operation versus the Gnex , so greater battery drain

Sorry to bother you, just wanted to ask for your opinion since you used S2 before and currently using Nexus.

Currently, I'm currently using S2 and was thinking of getting the Nexus. As I like to root, install custom rom, kernel and tweak the phone, do you think it is worth it to move on to Nexus?

With the current rumors of S3 etc, do you think GNex will still be viable and will still perform well?

Thank you! smile.gif
*
If this is your interest, why not ? the gnex will offer you earlier updates from google and also development efforts from rom developers
S3 is still rumours lah !!! However if it is realized I believe it will be better than the GNex as Samsung hardware specs will definitely be better than the GNex

Sorry for the noobness, I thought it just another app like titanium backup. Google it up, turn out it just a term for full system backup,haha.

"If you need to restore some system data , eg messages, contacts etc – choose ” restore all system data” : UNSELECT all and only tick those system apps you need , example you can restore back the Launcher data where you have setup all your homescreen."
Taken from your site, if I want to do the above, should I use titanium backup or CWM?
*
Those post refer to titanium backup. Read again

@unclebenny, do you set any profiles with setcpu? if yes what profiles do you set? I was thinking of setting it to 350min 350max when screen off to save battery but afraid I'll get sleep of death sweat.gif
*
Yes. Lowest is 350 as is control by the kernel. On my g note i go to even 100mhz as lowest
I set profile for screen off; charging, temp >;50, battery <25 these highest cpu i set at 800mhz
At 350mhz lowest will never get sod. Max i suggest at least 500mhz

Guys, I've done unlocking, rooting and install CWM.
But my phone now is like brand new phone with all my apps and setting gone.
Do I need to restore the nandroid backup to get back all my setting?
If I restore it, will my phone be locked and unroot?
*
You restore from your nandroid backup you get back exactly what you have in the first place
Restore your stuff from titanium backup if you have done it before you flash

I restore from nandroid and everything is the same except for widget. However, some of my files such as pics,ringtone and sms is gone.

First time you unlock bootloader everything including viewable part of internal sd is wipe clean. Subsequent flash will not wipe the viewable partition only hidden partition
So just copy back your wipe stuffs back. Next time you flash rom no need to do this again

Hi all,

I notice that my GNex will become uncomfortably warm/hot after only 10-20 minutes of moderate usage (temperature rising from 85 F to 110 F , measured by battery info. widget), something that i had never experienced with my iphone(3gs) for the past 2 years.

This is my first Android phone, and i am still with stock 4.0.1

I wonder if this is normal or i actually got a faulty unit.

Your feedback is most appreciated.
*
You cannot compare a 600mhz chip with a more powerful 1,2ghz processor. It is definitely hotter. Your temp is normal nothing to be worried about even going up to above 50+ degree c. And use centigrade in your app. We are in msia not usa. We use metric system

Thanks sifu, so any recommended rom?
I'm thinking of flashing stock 4.0.2 first, try it for few days and then go to custom rom.
Some of custom roms are based on 4.0.3, do I need to flash to 4.0.3 first before flash these roms.
From google website, there is no 4.0.3 stock rom yet
*
4.02 try arhd 2.1.3
You can flash directly any 4.0.3 rom ontop 4.01 or 4.02 rom. Must do wipe data before flash n use titanium to backup your stuffs first

If you bother to read franco thread his specs is clearly stated only for 4.0.3 build. Arhd is 4.0.2 build. So answer cannot
