Try check that both setting. one more thing, i didnt put any sim card, but then there is signal bar..i thought it suppose to be like blocked sign rite?

QUOTE(keeplwk @ May 14 2013, 11:49 AM) i did mentioned a solution from xda forum few posts back.. I disable a lot of samsung apps, my ram now less than 1gb, I guess by disable any apps we dun want to use, myb we can reduce the system ram, hence less reboot..duno, juz my 2 cent onlyhere it is: I got this suggestion from xda forum : Go to developer options and change "limit background processes" to 4 but if u doing multitasking on your phone, better avoid this.. i did limit the background processes to 4 at first but i turn it back to default few hours later ..After that i nvr face restart problem anymore.. I have no idea whether it is bcoz of that option solve the reboot problem or something else..well you can try.. |

QUOTE(benny888 @ May 15 2013, 09:26 AM) Our TS needs to be pushed to update stuffs. I think he doesn't own the phone yet and so not so active in updating. Depend on yourself and google for solution instead i post the question before i google the link...btw, thnx for the clarification, n yes, TS shud update the first pageIf you have read the link, you would know you can use CWM to flash his CWM version which includes the FS modules already |

QUOTE(benny888 @ May 15 2013, 09:50 AM) Adfree and adsaway is now no longer available on Playstore due to some of their violations on Google requirements - you can google the reasons for this. No point elaborating here Noted, thnx bennyMost apps can be disabled safely except core apps such as contact, address, calendar. You can even disable touchwiz ( make sure you have alternative launcher installed first) . If the core app cannot be disabled, you just cannot do it Any of the default stuffs which I dont use - i uninstall or disable it Since you are now rooted, do a nandroid backup first before disabling or uninstalling any default stuffs just for security sake |
