If you use 3rd party launcher then install Home Manager app and use it to kill TW launcher and let only one launcher running. Otherwise TW still running in the background.

Sry for disturbing. I read through from ver 21 until ver22 pg 3 (so far), still didn't see anyone discuss bout flash Poland jb to msia jb. My one currently using Poland stock jb and kernel. Wish to flash to msia jb. Do I need unroot or just flash it? Can we consider Poland stock jb to msia stock jb as flashing from stock Rom to stock Rom?

Thank
*
Well, i flashed from ICS stock to Malaysia JB stock... feel not good with DLJ1, then flashed to Omega. Yesterday flashed to wanamlite and tried... today flashed back Omega coz like it more. (wanamlite is good also, just personal preference)

Im not a pro, but from all the flashing here and there... just follow the steps below, won't go wrong.

1) Backup using Titanium Backup (All users data and system data)
2) Do a Nandroid backup just in case anything happened during the flashing
3) ALWAYS wipe all data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
4) Flash the new ROM u downloaded from SAMMOBILE or other custom ROM
5) Reboot
6) If u are flashing Malaysia stock ROM, root again
7) Restore using Titanium Backup. (FIRST restore missing apps with data. NEXT only restore all system data, select the one with GREEN colour only, RED might crash with your currect system, especially when u upgrade from ICS to JB.)
8) Reboot and you are good to go.

For your case, no need to unroot , just follow the steps above. Yeah, stock rom to stock rom

I flash omega v31 custom rom.
My batarry drain very fast... any other rom ? Any recommend?
*
woohoo.... slow down mate... if like this, u flash whatever ROM also will drain battery doh.gif . Once u flashed a new ROM , first the battery need to stable itself 1st, normally allow 2 - 3 cycle charge, to adapt new settings, new kernel . Second, media scanner sure need time to scan again all ur files and this drains battery pretty fast.

And if u connect the USB cable to ur phone and unplugged it during the screen lock down, it drains also. USB wakelock will keep on awaking.

So theres many possible causes to ur battery drain. There are many good ROMs like wanam and checkrom, but if u keep on flashing without really stay with one, u won't really feel any improvement.

As far as im using Omega with Siyah kernel, everything seem fine after 2 days using. Smooth, fast.. thumbup.gif

Updated through PC Kies, battery drain very significant... regreted to update it. Any method to downgrade to original ICS?
*
why people just cant be patience a bit? let ur JB run few recharge cycle first. shakehead.gif

JB is definitely better than ICS, in terms of functionality and speed. And whenever u do a major upgrade, sure battery will drain very fast as it's like a fresh start for the phone.

this is what we call, human being meh! lol

hehe... try it urself mate. Im kinda addicted to flashing new ROMs now.. as long as u had ur files backup with TiBa, everything is fine. haha. Every popular ROMs are good, it is just depend on users itself. I've tried wanam, checkrom and omega, lastly sticked with omega + siyah.

If u like more stock feel, go for wanam.. My friend using ARHD ,also not bad, but not yet try..

U can read a lots of comments here in checkrom XDA thread wink.gif

hi guys,
wanna ask...can i delete my clockworkmode folder in my phone?
it took almost 3gb of space in my phone... rclxub.gif
and i want to install another rom on it after this...
*
Just to make sure, inside that folder there is another folder called Backup, and inside backup is the Folder with your backup date ?

This should be the nandroid backup u have done previously. Do you have an ext sd card? My nandroid is saved in my ext sd card and yes, it can be deleted... don't delete the whole folder, just delete the folder with ur nandroid backup date on it as folder name.

Just flash from Poland to UK jb!! Did factory reset as well. Do I need to clear cached or wipe dalvik?
*
Yeah.. better wipe cache and dalvik.. standard procedure

1) wipe data
2) wipe cache
3) wipe dalvik
4) then only flash the new rom..
5) restore from ur backup..

just a few clicks only to wipe cache and dalvik, not even 5 seconds, its done.. so why take the risk for not doing it? I always do that when flashing new ROM..

But now, with JB it still alive sometime not like before. How to see what apps/services still running?

I already stop/off/force close these apps and services:

  1. Mobile data
  2. Google Now
  3. Wifi
  4. GPS
  5. Google Play Store: auto-update = off
  6. Google Talk: signed off
  7. Google Maps: location reporting > report fom this device = off, enable location history = off
  8. Facebook notification = off
  9. Twitter notification = off
  10. Google+ = signed off
  11. Whatsapp = force close
  12. Dropbox = force close
  13. Google Drive = force close

Oh mai. ... I just factory reset then straight flash to UK jb, then factory reset again. I skipped the clear cache and dalvik step!

Just to make sure, ur factory reset is by selecting WIpe data in recovery?

well thats the normal procedure to ensure everything works and no crashes between 2 ROMS, but if u skipped already, don't worry, just observe ur new UK ROM, see if it works fine.. If everything okay, u r good to go icon_rolleyes.gif
